Conexion Next is Nashville’s newest emerging leader network that dedicates its work to promote the vision and mission of Conexion Americas, a non-profit that is building a welcoming community and creating opportunities where Latino families can belong, contribute and succeed.

Thanks to Chris Weinman (Class 69), Matthew Drewes (Class 61) and Elam Freeman (Class 70) on the Walk Bike Nashville board for their efforts in promoting protected bike lanes to ensure that all riders, no matter the mode of transit they choose, are safer on city streets. See the pop-up bike lane on Commerce Street from 3rd Ave. to 5th Ave. as part of the annual PARK(ing) Day celebration this Friday, 9am-3pm with a guided tour at 12pm. Come learn about the plan for these bike (and scooter) lanes and see for yourself how Commerce St. could be safer for everyone.
