Wellness Walks

A group of four people walks on a trail by Lake Merritt in Oakland.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the SR2S Program introduced Wellness Walks to provide you and your students with some extra encouragement to get outside and enjoy a walk safely. Similar to our ongoing Walk and Roll to School events, each month we chose a theme and offered suggestions for incorporating it into daily walks.

We similarly created a companion Walk and Roll Pen Pals program as another way to stay connected. Each month, we provided a letter writing prompt that aligned with our Wellness Walk theme.

While the Wellness Walks and Walk and Roll Pen Pals programs are no longer actively updated, we encourage you to reference these resources as inspiration for future activities.
