Join a Walking Group

Join or start a  Walking Group This Year

Do you have a goal of walking more in 2025?  A great way to meet a walking goal is to plan to walk with other people!  Identify a consistent walking buddy or two to build your own walking group.  

Are you or your organization interested in starting a walking group? Contact Sara  for walking group best practices or to schedule a training. See below for a list of current organizations who lead walks.
