I-WALK- save the date!

Great volunteer opportunity that gives us all a chance to provide feedback on the walkability of Grinnell.  Iowans Walking Assessment Logisitics Lit (I-WALK) needs community members to volunteer a bit of their time to help create an environment that allows everyone, especially those 55+ a safe place to walk and bike.

I-WALK asks volunteers to fill out a web based or paper survey listing their concerns.  We'll let you know once those are released.  Then we'll map problem areas as a group.   Volunteers will meet the morning of May 8th for a quick training and then we will actually walk the routes identified in the surveys.  Results will be presented to the community.

More details will be forthcoming.  It's a great way to make Grinnell more inviting for walking and biking, creating healthier citizens in the process.  The more volunteers we have, the better, so please, save the date if you can.
