Living in the Scoot Utopia

Longest Walk 2 is a 30th-anniversary commemorative walk from San Francisco to Washington, DC to raise awareness of environmental and human rights issues. There are two groups currently underway on this walk, one walking a southern route and the other walking a northern route.



On May 1 a band of about 90 walkers and support crew will reach the western edge of the Kansas City area and spend 3 days walking across the metro area on their way to DC. I'm privileged to be involved with the local effort for this walk, being responsible for determining the route they will be walking across Kansas City. We're working out a few issues with overnight stays and planned rest stops but should have the route finalized in a few days. Once it's final, I'll post it here so that you can see where to expect to find the group. Members of the local community are invited and encouraged to come watch, give support, and even join them for a while on the walk.



The organizers need donations to help with camping fees, food for the walkers, and fuel for their supply/support vehicles. Donations to the North Route can be made through their web site at longestwalk.org.



However I am also taking donations separately, the donations I collect will go directly to the local coordinating group to fund campsites and transporation costs while the group is right here in Kansas City. If you can donate, please click the button below.

(These donations will be collected through my business name, Syphon Interactive)
