Walk a Mile in Our Shoes for STEPS

I am inviting you to support me on Wednesday, February 8, 2012 for Udac’s 5th annual “Walk a Mile in Our Shoes” event. Our Honorary Event Chair this year is City of Duluth Mayor Don Ness. Come to the Holiday Center on February 8th to walk, donate or just to learn more about STEPS! Please consider making a donation to support my efforts with the Walk -- no donation is too small!

Walk from the Holiday Center to the DECC and back anytime between 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. or at STEPS Fitness Center (at Udac) anytime between 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Registration form at http://udac.org/walk/index.php or register in the Holiday Center the day of the event.

This treadmill walkathon will support Udac’s STEPS Fitness Center, located in the Udac building at 500 East 10th Street in Duluth, Minnesota. This fifth annual event is an opportunity for Udac to inform the community about its Specialized Training and Exercise Program (STEPS) and to raise money to support the important services it provides. Created to fill a community need for a safe, supervised and accessible exercise environment, STEPS allows people in our community with disabilities, chronic diseases and issues with aging to improve functional independence and prevent physical decline. Your participation in this event means people who can't easily access traditional fitness centers can work out in an environment tailored for their needs.
