MAYOR BUDDY DYER GOES DOOR-TO-DOOR TO MEET FACES OF PARRAMORE HERITAGE NEIGHBORHOOD

Mayor’s Work-Along with Orlando Police and Neighborhood Leaders to Provide City Resources and Recruit for Summer Teen Camps

WHAT: Tomorrow, Mayor Buddy Dyer will join Orlando Police Officers as they hit the streets of the Parramore Heritage Neighborhood with a door-to-door campaign to share valuable City and OPD information on housing rehabilitation and public safety programs, as well as to begin building relationships with residents. The ultimate goal of the City’s public safety efforts is to promote positive change within the Parramore community.

Additionally, Mayor Dyer will cruise Parramore with Toni Shinn, who runs a grassroots non-profit organization and is a
familiar face to the community, in an effort to engage and enroll students in free summer programs, including programs
especially targeted for teens, to help keep them off the streets, and to provide the resources for fun and unique
summer sessions. Many of the participating organizations have offered scholarships and other accommodations. In
addition, LYNX has graciously provided free bus passes for the entire summer to teens that sign up for these programs.

WHO: Mayor Buddy Dyer
Orlando Police Officers
Toni Shinn on behalf of CityTeenz

WHEN: Wednesday, July 6
1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
