Walking Event:

The "UCLA, Westwood & Marilyn Walk". For a trendy slice of life, LA style, it s hard to beat Westwood. Consider the neighborhood- to the north is UCLA, so it s a student hangout. But it s also close to Hollywood and Beverly Hills. Two famous landmarks are the Fox and Bruin Theaters, sites of many movie premieres. The Armand Hammer Museum of Art & Culture Center is here. Also adjacent is Holmby Hills, boasting the Playboy Mansion and LA Country Club. And to the south, tucked away like a secret, is the Westwood Memorial Park Cemetery. The 10/11K walk will take you to of all of the above. Westwood Village will tempt you to shop or eat (we take you past a Pinkberry.) And at the Westwood Memorial Park Cemetery you ll view the final resting places of Marilyn Monroe, Dean Martin, Jack Lemmon, Natalie Wood, Brian Keith, Burt Lancaster, Carroll O Connor, Roy Orbison, Billy Wilder, George C. Scott and more. The 6/7K route will take you to UCLA, Westwood and the cemetery but skips Holmby Hills. There is an optional 1K add-on through UCLA's botanical garden on either route. Restrooms, food & water on UCLA campus and in Westwood Village. Dogs not allowed in cemetery. Strollers possible but may require some work arounds (eg stairs). Walk during daylight hours only.
