Get WalkIN!

Looking for a way to develop a healthy habit of walking—or want some company on your walking journey? The Purdue Extension Office and the Aurora Public Library District have teamed up to provide this additional support.

  1. Join the Purdue Extension Get Walkin’ program by emailing mparcell@purdue.edu. You will get a couple of emails each week through early November encouraging you. The email might also ask you to complete a survey to help track participants progress.
  2. Walk! You can walk independently or you can join Marcia Parcell or Leslie Sutherlin at Dillsboro Public Library at 8:30 am on Wednesdays and at Aurora Public Library at 8:30 am on Fridays, starting August 17. Marcia will also be at North Dearborn Library on Mondays at 8:30 am. Walks will be about 2 to 2.5 miles, but you can go as far or as short as you would like.
  3. APLD participants will get an insulated cup.  Contact the library at 812-926-0646 to reserve your cup and spot to walk.

See you there!
