Walk to School Day is October 2!

It's almost time to lace up your sneakers and join thousands of schools across the country to celebrate International Walk to School Day next Wednesday! If your school or community has a thriving Safe Routes to School program, Walk to School Day is a great energizing event, letting you connect your efforts with those of other students around the state, country, and world. If you don’t have many existing efforts to encourage students to walk to school, Walk to School Day is a fun and easy way to explore interest, build enthusiasm, and get started.
