National Walking Day Celebration with Blue Zones Project SWFL

To participate in National Walking Day, Blue Zones Project is hosting a community walk beginning promptly at 5:30 p.m. at Cambier Park in Naples, Fla. The one mile walk, which should take approximately 20 minutes to complete, will leave from the Cambier Park bandshell and culminate at the Garden of Hope and Courage on the NCH downtown campus. Anyone is welcome to join! You’ll be provided a Blue Zones Project t-shirt and be eligible to win a $1,000 prize drawing.

The one mile walk will proceed from Cambier Park and head north on 8th Street to showcase the recent redevelopment project along Central Ave., a partner project between Blue Zones Project and the City of Naples. Completed in the Fall, this project improved the walkability and bikeability of this central corridor, adding wider sidewalks and a bike lane. Roundabouts were also added to improve traffic conditions and lower speeds for bicycle and pedestrian safety.

Once arriving at the Garden of Hope and Courage, participants will be treated to light hors d’oeuvres and Wine after five.

We hope to see you there!
