Get your school involved in Walk to School Day
We drive our kids to school, then hurry to pick them up so we can take them to sports or some exercise class.
I've posted it before, but again, why not just walk?
Except this time, there's an event: International Walk to School Day next month. The good news: So far, 88 schools in Florida have enrolled. The bad: Only one is in South Florida, Waters Edge Elementary in Boca Raton.
OK, here's the pitch. Go to the Walk to School Day site, click on the How to Get Started button and take it to your PTA or principal. Send us a picture afterward and we'll post it on this blog.
