City of Grand Rapids plans new route for annual “Grand Crossings,”
Bridge Walk on Labor Day, Monday, September 3, 2012
8:00 a.m. Ah-Nab-Awen Park
You don’t have to go all the way to the Mackinac Bridge to join the annual Labor Day Bridge Walk.
Join your neighbors, invite your friends. Participants can walk as many as five miles through downtown Grand Rapids, the equivalent of the Mackinac Bridge, and cross more than just one bridge on a new route. The route is wheelchair accessible and appropriate for all fitness levels. No sign-up is necessary. Snacks provided by Spartan Stores. Please make sure you are physically able to participate.
Mayor George K. Heartwell will lead the walk which steps off at 8:00 a.m., Monday, September 3, 2012, at 8:00 a.m., from Ah-Nab-Awen Park, near the corner of Pearl and Scribner. Free parking is available in City lots Area 7 by Big Boy and the Scribner lot.
“Grand Crossings” is part of the Active Michigan Summer initiative organized by the Governor’s Council on Physical Fitness, Health and Sports.
