June Newsletter

A Note From Armand

Hey Savannah!

May was full of exciting accomplishments! We hosted a successful Faith Walk with 269 participants and welcomed our third intern cohort through the Partnership for Innovation. Thank you to everyone who helped make May a success!

June is shaping up to be just as exciting. National Trails Day is June 6, making it the perfect time to explore the Truman Linear Park Trail, a segment of the 30-mile Tide to Town Trail. You can access the trail on Bee Road near Daffin Park and enjoy a walk, run, or bike ride.

Looking for a walking group? Join us for our Healthy Walks on Tuesday at 7:30 a.m. Check the Healthy Walk schedule for this month's locations!

And don't forget—Juneteenth is June 19. We'll be celebrating at the Pooler Juneteenth Festival on Saturday, June 20. We hope to see you there! Be sure to check out the flyer below for more details.
