Stroll to the Polls

Event Description

Join students, faculty, staff and community members as we Stroll to the Polls on Saturday, Oct. 24 as part of Vote Early Day 2020.  The TLH Votes coalition will host a community walk and bike to the polls event. Participants will meet in Westcott Plaza and then walk in groups of 50 people or less to one of three local Early Voting sites between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Campus Recreation will also check out bikes at Westcott and group rides to polling locations. Those with their own bikes are welcome to join these groups as well. Shuttles with reduced capacity will offer return trips to those who need to return to campus. 

We hope that you will join us in heading to the polls to cast your ballot or drop off your vote-by-mail ballot in person. 

 

Participate

This event is open to anyone who would like to vote early or support in other ways. Volunteer options are available both in person and virtually. 

Face-to-face volunteer options include helping at the check-in or hydration stations or serving as a route guide. Virtual options include participating in our Oct. 21 Couch Party to encourage your friends and family to vote or join FloridaPIRGS for a phone-a-thon on Vote Early Day. For those who want to encourage participants while remaining socially distant, morale captains are invited to join throughout the routes. Learn more about the roles at the registration links below.
