Get Your Steps - Stair Climb & Lit Drop in the Sunset
Join the Stair Climber Team
Get fresh air and exercise by putting flyers on doors in the Sunset. Feel good about your workout as you help inform voters about creating a transformational oceanside park.
You won’t knock on doors or talk to strangers. Climb the stairs and leave a flyer on the door while listening to music or a podcast.
Every weekend, we cover a new neighborhood in the Sunset. You can also do your own route anytime during the week. We will provide the flyers and a map. You provide the foot power.
The Stair Climber Team gets our message into the hands of voters while saving expensive mailing costs. You are the superheroes of the campaign!
Stair Climber Tips
Wear a hat and sunscreen. Even on cloudy days the sun burns through!
Wear comfy walking or running shoes.
Workout clothes recommended, especially material that can whisk sweat.
Wear layers. The Sunset can be cold and foggy, but you will warm up after a few doors and the sun will eventually come out.
Bring a bottle of water. The stairs are a workout.
Bring a bag with shoulder strap to hold your flyers.
Many like to listen to music or podcasts with earphones while they climb stairs.
If you feel tired, stop and rest. This isn't a race and there is nothing to prove. Do whatever you can comfortably do. If you can't finish your map, no problem. Just let us know what remains to be done and we’ll finish it for you.
Best Practices
Flyers can't go in or near mailboxes! This is illegal.
Do not put flyers on the porch steps or under door mats. They will blow away or not be noticed.
Put the flyer on the door itself, either on the door handle or in the door crack.
If there is an apartment building or duplex with one gate for all units, put just one flyer on the gate.
What if there is a “no soliciting” sign? You can still leave a flyer because we aren't knocking on the door and we aren't selling anything. Sometimes those signs (especially the old ones embedded in the stairs) are from decades ago when door to door peddlers were common.
You won’t knock on doors. Just place the flyer. If a resident asks about the campaign, refer them to the website on the flyer and let them know there is an extensive FAQ page.
