The Westside Citizens Coalition is asking all Westside residents to participate in our first We Love Youngstown night.
Due to the recent shootings and gang tagging in our area, the Coalition has organized several walks on the Westside of Youngstown. The starting locations for each walk are listed below. If you are not able to participate in the walk but want to show your solidarity with our cause, the Coalition asks that on Saturday, February 11 you turn on your front lignt from 5 - 11 pm.

Some residents from the Garden District will meet at Casa Ramirez.
We did it! We had a short walk and then enjoyed a meal and pleasant conversation.
I've heard that the newspaper reported on one of the groups as they walked along Mahoning Avenue.
We had eleven residents that showed up at Casa Ramirez. I tried to attach a picture but kept getting an error that the picture was too large. There were eleven at Molly's and not sure how many at the other sites.
