Volunteer: Clarksburg Neighborhood Walk & RollClarksburg Neighborhood Walk & Roll: Seeing Our Neighborhood, Shaping Our Future
Date: Saturday, September 20 Join us for a community Walk & Roll around Clarksburg to see our neighborhood with fresh eyes and consider how we can shape its future together. Inspired by Strong Towns and Jane’s Walk principles, this 2.5-mile route will highlight key local spaces—our schools, future development sites, public corridors, small businesses, and historic landmarks. Along the way, we’ll explore: The need for safe, well-lit paths for students and walkers The future of the Comsat property and the Gateway Sector Plan Public space challenges, like illegal truck parking The impact of supporting local businesses and jobs Clarksburg’s history of diversity, equity, and education The role of The Yard as a hub for neighborliness The walk will conclude with a 30-minute debrief session at The Yard, where participants can reflect, respond, and commit to an action or advocacy step. Who can join? Everyone is welcome—neighbors of all ages. If you prefer to bike or roll instead of walk, bring your wheels! Students may earn 2 SSL hours for participating; forms will be available at the event. Why now? This is a particularly important moment for Clarksburg. The Montgomery County Planning Board will hold a listening session on September 25, 2025 about the Gateway Sector Master Plan. Much of what we’ll experience on this walk connects directly to that discussion. Clarksbrew Coffee Cart will be open at The Yard from 8:00–11:00 AM. If you’d like to start your Walk & Roll with a fresh coffee or tea, come a little early! Come see Clarksburg in a new way, learn our shared story, and take part in shaping a stronger, more connected future for our community. ***While this opportunity is open to any students or residents, it will be of particular interest to Clarksburg High School Students and residents*** Student participation in this service project is at the discretion of the student’s parent/guardian and must be completed outside of school hours in a public space under direct supervision of the nonprofit organization.
