Are you looking to get in shape this winter and keep your fitness resolutions this year? Let’s embrace winter and enjoy the brisk weather, get motivated and go on a lunchtime walk/jog or snowshoe session, depending on the weather. We will go over warming up, fitness walking/snowshoeing and have a fun time getting you re-energized for the rest of the day. The program will run in various weather conditions, so please bring proper winter gear. Even if you can only walk for a half hour, you are encouraged to join the group. Prizes will be awarded to the most dedicated walkers. The program is instructed by Donna Carney-Bastrzycki, Director of Special Programs and meets on Tuesdays-January 7, 14, 21, 28, Feb. 4 from 12:00-1:00 p.m. at the Middle School track (if there is too much snow/ice on the track we will walk behind McAlister and the Middle School) The program is for all ages, levels and abilities and is free.
