On Saturday, Nov. 27, Mid City Neighborhood Council (MINC) played host to 250 people who gathered together to walk 17.4 miles from downtown L.A. to Venice Beach. The Great Walk was started in 2005 by a blogger who thought it would be great to experience L.A. as a pedestrian.
This year the group decided to walk through our community and explore our history and architecture. Bruce Durbin from MINC organized a community welcome wagon and MINC sponsored a Water and Supply station at the local Atomic Café.

Its cool to see our neighborhood through the eyes of visitors.
