Mission Statement
The “Walk the Bluff” program hopes to help you, your family and friends to walk the Dayton’s Bluff neighborhood of Saint Paul, Minnesota regularly. Walk the Bluff is working to make your walks more frequent, enjoyable, and safe by helping you find walking partner(s) as well as places or trails in Dayton’s Bluff. Our goal is to get hundreds more people out walking often – four times per week for 30 minutes. You and your group chose when and where to walk. The Walk the Bluff program has suggestions on where and with whom you can walk. We hope to make your walks more frequent, joyful and safe. Join us!
Walking is healthy fun, convenient exercise as well as a simple and efficient way to get places including school, work and shopping. One can walk off pounds and stress. When walking one can discuss issues of the day, spy the glories of nature in action or enjoy quiet time together with family or friends.
Walk the Bluff can help you find a walking partner or group. Of course, you can talk with possible partners about walking together anywhere whether it be at home, in your neighborhood, at church, at work – and lots of employers want you to walk, some even have health club medical benefits. Try asking people that you want to see healthy, that you care about. Ask them to walk with you. Let others know that you (want to) walk and want them to join you. Please contact us and let us know about your walks and group. If you already have a walking group or partner please share what you consider to be the best times and places on the Bluff to walk. Your story might inspire others to walk!
By walking our neighborhoods your eyes and ears on the street help create a safer community for all. Prevention of undesirable activities often happens just because someone is there. Both the Dayton’s Bluff Community Council and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota are funding the Walk the Bluff program to make our neighborhoods a better place to live, work and raise a family.
