Make Your Community Walkable

Home > Public Health (PH) > Take Action! >> Walkable Community

To form your own neighborhood walking group:

• Get your group together (talk to neighbors, friends, colleagues)
• E-mail, call, or post a notice designating days to walk, a time, and a convenient meeting place
• Continue to promote the group – special t-shirts, hats, or buttons to call attention to it
• Participate as a team in charity/community walks for fun, to add variety, and to support a good cause

Public Health can help with technical assistance: call 245-6457
