This health-focused initiative encourages residents to get moving, connect with local healthcare providers, and learn more about the benefits of regular physical activity.
Hosted in partnership with Dr. Lenouvel and the Flatbed Loops Walking Group, the event offers a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere where participants can enjoy the outdoors, ask questions, and engage in conversations about chronic disease prevention and wellness.
