March Route
Due to the exceedingly high cost of traffic control, we have decided to hold the entire event in one location. Therefore, the march will begin at Hawthorne Park and end at Hawthorne park.
We will begin by leaving the park and head towards E. Jackson St. We'll turn left onto the Bear Creek Greenway. Then we'll continue to the dog park and circle back around to the beginning for speakers and music on the stage. Three food trucks will be parked at the event and there will be a non-perishable food drive to benefit Access in Medford. 
**ASL Interpretation Provided** A note about Parking: Please do NOT park at the Medford Center parking lots. You could be ticket or towed. You can park at the Middleford Structure at 314 E. 6th St. or find street parking. The parking lot south of the Inn at the Commons marked “Event Parking” are City of Medford lots. Those areas are free and open to the public on weekends. There are over 100 spots in that lot which during the week are occupied by those who work downtown, and on weekends are open and available to the public. PLEASE CARPOOL.
