WALKING WEDNESDAY RESULTS

151 students and 22 adults walked or biked into school on Wednesday (5-17-2017). Among students, the Incredibles had the highest Walk/Bike to School participation rate.  This team can often boast similar results. Nice work motivating each other to get to school by foot or bike! A bunch of other teams were not far behind the Incredibles in participation numbers.

WALKING WEDNESDAY STANDINGS FOR THE POOL PARTY
The Incredibles have a slight lead with the Travelers right behind them. However, any one of eight teams are still in the running for the pool party. The aim should be to get at least a third of your learning community to walk or bike into school on Wednesdays. Perhaps commitments could be made on upcoming Tuesdays?

WALK AT LUNCH
Almost everyone came out to walk a least one lap of the walking path before the end of the school day on Wednesday.  Each year we participate in the Walk-at-Lunch state-wide program that is designed to get people thinking about getting some exercise. We walk regularly at this time of year anyway and are happy to be a part of the Walk-at-Lunch push.
