I am not affiliated with Cheyenne or Laramie County, Wyoming.  I am a subscriber to The Western Planner and interested in the national Safe Routes to School program encouraging infrastructure so more kids can walk and/or bike to school.  Saw this on the WP email list and reposted (took out email/phone #s, you can look them up if you’re interested).
