Los Griegos Neighborhood Association

Dear Neighbors:

We are pleased to be hosting our upcoming Neighborhood Walk on Saturday, March 22 at 10:00 a.m. in the Guadalupe Trail and Los Griegos neighborhoods, and I am reaching out the board members of both neighborhood associations to invite you and your members and other neighbors to join us for the Walk.

The Neighborhood Walk Program is an initiative led by the Office of Neighborhood Coordination (ONC) as a means to increase outreach, communication and networking among neighborhood residents and the ONC, a way to increase walkability, and to provide a forum for neighborhood residents to have City resources and staff brought directly to them. We have hosted 12 of these Walks in a variety of neighborhoods across Albuquerque since their inception in October 2023 and they have garnered significant positive feedback. It would be a great opportunity for our office to have your associations be part of this walk, if possible. My staff will be in attendance, as will City staff from Council Services and the Planning Department, and representatives from Jane’s Walks and Walk Albuquerque will also be there.

The Walks last between 1 and 2 hours, generally not exceeding 1.5 hours, to give you an idea of time commitment. The proposed route of the Walk will start and end at Columbus Park, where attendees can park. We will walk south on South Guadalupe Trail to Griegos Road, then west along Griegos to Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, then head east back on Griegos Road and either continue to La Luz Coffee Company at Griegos and 12th for a quick coffee then return to Columbus Park, or if attendees do not have time, we can return to South Guadalupe Trail heading north back to Columbus Park and our vehicles.

We ask that Walk participants dress appropriately for the weather, wear comfortable shoes, bring water, and leave furry friends at home. We hope you can attend. Feel free to share this with others who may want to participate in the Walk.

Thank you in advance for your consideration, and please let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.
