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!

Next Up: Field Club Elementary!



We can add more names to the list of fantastic school staff members we've met with lately! 

Prinicpal Barb Wild and P.E. teacher Jill Parkert were great to chat with this afternoon about the possibilities of bringing the Walk 'n Roll movement to Field Club Elementary.  Walk 'n Roll Wednesdays are a possibility, as are some walking school busses.  It was great to hear about how they view neighborhood communication and interaction as a positive benefit to their school.  Field Club is a beautiful and historic part of town, and it will be great to work with them.

We're looking forward to chatting with their PTA soon and getting things rolling after spring break!
