Did you know the City of Key West is working on a Bicycle Master Plan this year? Want to learn more about how you can be a successful bicycle advocate?
Key West Green Drinks is a monthly gathering where locals and visitors can learn more about the green goings on in our community. We meet on the 2nd Wednesday of every month at 5:30pm in the upstairs Muse Bar at Kelly’s Caribbean Grill & Brewery at 301 Whitehead St.
Working with the City of Key West's Preserve Island Life program, each month we will be covering a different green subject. This month is Transportation Month where we will be learning more about Bike Advocacy and Bicycle Master Plans. Also, please share updates for other sustainability efforts in our area.
