REPORTS AND PICTURES WALKING WEDNESDAY RESULTS 112 Students and 13 adults walked and biked into school on Wednesday. It was a beautiful morning for a Walking Wednesday. The Incredibles had the highest turnout for the day and are this week's Walking Wednesday Champions. INCREDIBLES Walkers and Bikers 5-10-2017 WALKING WEDNESDAY TOTALS AFTER TWO WEEKS If you are curious to know which team is in the lead for the Walking Wednesday pool party, you will see that it is a tight race.  The Travelers and Incredibles are in the lead. The Voyagers are not far behind. In truth, if any team wants to make it into the lead by the end of May it will not be hard to do so.  There is a lot of room for increasing Walking Wednesday participation rates among all teams. Pictures from Walking Wednesday 5-10-2017 Observation.  A lot of cyclists are not wearing helmets.  How can we change this behavior?
