on Weds. May 8th 2013
Hudson Schools will be joining schools from around the U.S. to celebrate our 3rd annual National Bike/Walk to School Day on May 8th.
Students from Evamere, East Woods, McDowell and Hudson Middle School will be walking and bicycling to school that Wednesday along with parents, teachers and community leaders.
Walkers and bikers alike will receive recognition on this day to get out, celebrate Spring and get some morning exercise! There will be parent volunteers and an increased police presence in neighborhoods surrounding Hudson Schools. Tables will be set up manned by parent volunteers to reward participants, and there will be special recognition on the morning announcements!
Bike/Walk to School events work to create safer routes for walking and bicycling and emphasize the importance of issues such as increasing physical activity, promoting independence among children, pedestrian and bicycle safety, traffic congestion, concern for the environment and building connections between families, schools and the broader community.
The event is being organized by Safe Routes Hudson, a community-initiated effort to improve the walking and bicycling conditions in Hudson. Special emphasis is being placed on a combination of activities that make it safer for our children to walk and bicycle to school.
