🌟 RECREATION DESTINATION HIGHLIGHT OF THE DAY! 🌟

🚶‍♀️OUR FALL WALKING CHALLENGE KICKS OFF MONDAY!🚶‍♂️

How far can we walk together as a community? Let’s find out!

Step 1: Add your name or group name to the tracking sheet in the front lobby of the Memorial Sports Centre.

Step 2: Head upstairs and get walking!

👟 9 laps around the walking track = 1 mile

Step 3: Keep track of your laps with tally marks. Once you reach 9 tallies, you’ve completed 1 mile — add a sticker to your line! ⭐

Each week, we’ll total up everyone’s miles and see just how far our community has travelled together.

Walk one mile or walk twenty — every lap counts!💪❤️

We are stronger together. See you on the track!
