International Walk to School Month (October)
"International
Walk to School Month gives children,
parents, school teachers and
community leaders an opportunity
to be part of a global event
as they celebrate the many benefits
of walking. In 2007, millions of walkers from
around the world walked to school together
for various reasons - all hoping
to create communities that are safe places
to walk."
