    Gabe’s Gotta Go event 8/6/26

    Due to the hot summer, we are going to be scheduling these events weekly after looking at the weather on Saturday. We will post days here weekly.

    We will be on the pedestrian bridge over Highway 85 in Brighton.

    Ample parking can be found in the far south lot near the AMC theater. The bridge can also be accessed at South Kuner Road and Southern Street.

    For now, events will be held from 4:30-5:30. The times may change as we get closer to the election, depending on daylight hours and whether changes in Daylight Savings Time happen.

    We will have banners!
