Signature Gathering at San Francisco Cherry Blossom Festival

​Gather signatures for both Connect Bay Area and Stronger Muni for All, funding public transit in San Francisco and throughout the five counties of the Inner Bay Area!

The Cherry Blossom Festival attracts over 200,000 visitors every year from the Bay Area and beyond, and is right on several key Muni routes.

We will meet at the starting time by the booths on Post St. for a quick training and petition supplies distribution. After that, we'll head out to start collecting signatures in the area.

To see the most friendly faces and to join the group training session, plan to meet at the event start time. But if you've already attended a training (or if you complete online training in advance by reading our training guide then completing this form), you can stop by anytime before the end of the event to drop off completed petitions and/or pick up new ones. (We'll be able to do packet exchanges quicker after the first half-hour of the event.) Your RSVP is helpful either way.

No experience necessary. You just need to be 18 years old to gather signatures.  If you're under 18, let us know at [email protected] as there are many other ways to be involved and help!

San Francisco needs to pass both the Stronger Muni for All (San Francisco parcel tax) and Connect Bay Area (five-county sales tax) transit measures in November to prevent service cuts, and you can gather signatures for both at the same time! We will have both petitions available at this event.
