Maurice Hawk Elementary School will join schools from around the world to celebrate International Walk to School Day on October 6, 2010.
Students, their parents, and staff, along with members of the West Windsor Bicycle and Pedestrian Alliance, will walk from the Township Municipal Center to Maurice Hawk Elementary School. This will be the fourth time the WWBPA has helped organize such an event (last year’s walk was cancelled because of bad weather.)
Walk to School events work to create safer routes for walking and bicycling and emphasize the importance of issues such as increasing physical activity among children, pedestrian safety, traffic congestion, concern for the environment, and building connections between families, schools, and the broader community.
