[HealthyTribes] Intergenerational Streets Challenge: Safe + Active

[Gramp Heather]

Dear Partners –

I am passing along a fun contest that is also an opportunity to identify the kinds of places we need to create across Oregon for people of all ages and abilities to be able to be more physically active, particularly by walking to meet every day needs in their neighborhoods. There is a chance to win a $1,000 to support a walking project. Please see the newsletter below for links to details. Thank you! –Heather Gramp
Happy Walktober! Show us your safe and active streets!

Inter-generational
Safe Streets Challenge
What does an inter-generational safe street look like?
Here’s your chance to show us.

[(c) Southern Spaces]
Youth and older adults have similar needs when it comes to navigating our streets on foot. Whether a second grader is walking to school, their grandfather is walking to the corner store with their shopping trolley, or their aunt is walking to the park to socialize – we all need accessible destinations, continuous paths, and safe crossings.

AARP Oregon and the Safe Routes to School National Partnership are working together to bring Oregonians an Inter-generational Safe Streets Challenge. We invite you to tell us your proposed Inter-generational Safe Streets Challenge project and we will support your project with a stipend of $1,000 to make it happen.

Intrigued? Entries due November 1, 2016.
