Walk Jackson 2023 Has Begun
Walk Jackson is back! Each week from May 21th through July 25th a different location along one of the City’s trails or sidewalks will be chosen. Along with the location of the week, city staff will provide a short explanation on topics related to Public Works.
Anyone who wants to participate will go to that location, take a selfie with their smart phone, post it on either their Facebook or Instagram profiles and use the hashtag #walkjackson2023. Don’t have a smart phone or use social media? No worries! Stop by Public Works each week for a printed copy of the location of the week. The “Walk Jackson” sign will have tickets on the back that you can bring in to be entered. The sign will be up at the location of the week from Friday to Friday. Anyone who visits 2 sites and has either posted 2 hashtags or collected 2 tickets can come into Public Works at 101 Court Street (2nd Floor) and pick up your fabulous “Walk Jackson” t-shirt! But don’t stop with 2! Every posted picture at the location of the week with the #walkjackson2023 and every ticket collected will be entered into the drawing for the grand prize of a free pool party at the City of Jackson Public Pool! The Grand Prize will be drawn on July 26th and announced at Homecomers. You will not have to be present to win. Be sure to make your social media posts public so that City Staff can see it!
If you have any questions, please contact the City Engineer, Anna Bergmark, in the Public Works Office, 573-243-2300. Now go and WALK JACKSON!
