Amy Sangiolo To Host Running Event In West Newton

NEWTON, MA — Mayoral candidate Amy Sangiolo will once again spend her Saturday morning running through the streets of one of Newton's thirteen villages, inviting residents to join her to get some exercise and discuss current issues, learn about her positions, and ask questions.

This Saturday's "Run With Amy" will take place in West Newton starting at 9:30 a.m. The run will begin and end at Judith's Kitchen, located at 1371 Washington St.

“There’s so much to talk about related to West Newton Square,” said Sangiolo in a statement. “From the new traffic patterns, bike lanes, parking, lack of retail, the former Boston Sports Club space, and the need for a new police headquarters--we’ll have lots to discuss.”

“So many people pass through West Newton Square, or visit it,” she continued. “its vitality affects pretty much everyone in Newton.”

Those who do not want to run the 1.5 mile route are invited to join the outdoor discussion over coffee at 10 a.m. All participants are asked to RSVP here.

“It’s a great way to get to know Amy, said Newton City Councilor and Sangiolo supporter John Oliver in a statement. “Instead of scripted remarks the sessions are back and forth events, with Amy providing real time answers to voters’ questions.”
