Let's Get Moving Toledo Walking Program Kicks Off

The City of Toledo's Let's Get Moving walking program launched Saturday with an inaugural walk in Ottawa Park.

Mayor Wade Kapszukiewicz was joined by representatives from the Department of Parks and Youth Services, ProMedica, Toledo Lucas County Public Library, and Area Office on Aging of Northwestern Ohio, Inc., to announce a low-impact walking program for the entire community.

Participants can join weekly walks to earn incentives, participate in free health screenings, and receive coupons for the Senior Farmer’s Market Nutrition Program. Walkers will gather to enjoy the trails of Toledo with guest speakers every other week for the next 20 weeks.

The next event is July 21 at 6:30 p.m. at the Bowman Park/Chessie Trail. The full schedule and more information about the program can be found at: toledo.oh.gov/get-moving.
