WEST SIDE WALKS! Some of the best things about the West Side are the amazing natural spaces & our close-knit community. Combine these and you get our new series: WEST SIDE WALKING WEDNESDAYS!
In this beautiful MN Summer and Fall season, enjoy the health benefits of nature, moving our bodies, and spending time connecting with neighbors.
Each Wednesday a West Sider will lead a 30-45 minute walk somewhere throughout our big back yard, the West Side. Meet up location and times to come: some mornings, some evenings, always a Wednesday. The first will be this Wednesday the 14th, 8:15-8:45am at Cherokee Park (meet by the playground).
Need more convincing? Medical benefits of being in nature include 1) a mood boost, 2) improving focus and short term memory, 3) quicker relief from inflammation and pain, 4) better sleep, 5) less fatigue, 6) absorption of Vitamin D, and 7) longer life expectancy!
