The official blog of Activate Omaha's Walk 'n Roll to School initiative. Our goal is to get more kids walking and riding to school.
More Kids, More Often
Just a generation ago, the vast majority of kids that lived within a mile of their school walked or bicycled to get there. Today, that number is around 15%, and the childhood obesity rate and air quality issues tell the story. Join us as we encourage a new generation to embrace alternative forms of transportation that will improve the health and well being of everyone!
