No Sale of Public Parks and Lake Front Property- Selling the Harley Clarke Mansion and approx 40,000-100,000 sq ft of Lake Front land would be detrimental to Evanston. Lakefront property is a finite, irreplaceable natural asset that, once gone, cannot be reclaimed. Evanston must maintain ownership and control of land and properties it owns, especially on and near the lakefront. These are public treasures, once lost, and are gone forever. We should guard and treasure what little lakefront the community owns. The Harley-Clarke Mansion site is no exception.

Last year, the inaugural Run for Walk welcomed nearly 1,000 Northwestern fans, supporters and friends of the late Head Coach Randy Walker, to honor the former head football coach. Once again this year, the 5k family walk will continue as part of the Run for Walk, a 4.1 mile run through the Central Street area tree-lined streets and along the lakefront on Northwestern's campus.
