The mayor of San Antonio, Texas, Ivy Taylor, will be joining walking groups throughout San Antonio (63.2% Latino) to encourage walking and to help get San Antonio fit.
It is important for local leaders to promote walking and physical activity to create a culture of health. It is also important for local leaders to understand the walkability or lack of walkability that local residents face on a daily basis.
Join Ivy Taylor and the Mayor’s Fitness Council in their kick off “Walk with the Mayor” walk on Thursday, Oct. 29 at 6pm at the Alamo Beer Company, 415 Burnet. This recreational walk will be between City Council Districts 1 and 2. Future “Walk With the Mayor” walks will be with many of the already existing walking groups throughout San Antonio in all city council districts.
