A Note From Armand

Hey, Savannah!

Last month, we wrapped up our final Community Garden Visit of the season and had an amazing time with the Savannah Youth Ambassadors learning about nutrition, mental health, and physical activity. Thanks to everyone who joined us—we can't wait to see you again next year!

July is Parks and Recreation Month, and we're celebrating with the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the Truman Linear Park Trail Phase 2B on Monday, July 6! Keep the celebration going by joining one of our Healthy Walks every Tuesday at 7:30 a.m. and the third Saturday of each month at 8:00 a.m. Visit our website for walk locations, and come enjoy Savannah's beautiful parks and trails with us!

National Park & Recreation Month

July is Parks and Recreation Month! Join Healthy Savannah in celebrating the parks, trails, and green spaces that make it easier for our community to stay active and connected.

We're excited to announce the opening of Phase 2B of the Truman Linear Park Trail. This trail is a segment of the Tide to Town Trail! The ribbon-cutting ceremony will be on Monday, July 6 from 11 am to 12 pm at 1720 East 58th Street (next to Holly Heights Community Garden). This new segment brings Savannah one step closer to a connected trail network that provides safe, accessible opportunities to walk, bike, and roll throughout our community.

We hope you'll join us in celebrating this exciting milestone and spend some time exploring Savannah's parks and trails this month! View our map to find your next healthy walk location.

Sponsor Highlight

The completion of Phase 2B of the Truman Linear Park Trail would not have been possible without the contribution from the Racial and Ethnic Approaches to Community Health (REACH) Program. This CDC-funded program aims to improve health among racial and ethnic populations with the highest risk of chronic disease. We appreciate the program's efforts to making the healthy choice the easy choice in Savannah, GA. To learn more about the REACH Program, click here.
