Get movin’ and groovin’

Are you ready to get moving but need a little motivation? If the answer is “yes,” then the Wake Forest Parks, Recreation & Cultural Resources (PRCR) Department can help.

Beginning Wednesday, May 6, the PRCR will team with Wake County Human Services’ Health Promotion Chronic Disease Prevention and 4-H Youth Development to offer a free “Movin’ & Groovin’ Walking Series” at E. Carroll Joyner Park. Each Wednesday, from May 6 through June 3, from noon to 1 p.m., children and adults in our area are invited to walk the trails and enjoy the outdoors at Joyner Park, 701 Harris Road.

The “Movin’ & Groovin’ Walking Series” is designed to encourage area families and individuals to increase their physical activity in a free, fun and safe environment. The program also strives to raise public awareness about the importance of exercise and combat obesity.

To register, visit www.wakeforestnc.gov/parks-recreation-cultural-resources.aspx and click on the link “Register for Movin’ & Groovin’.”

For more information, contact PRCR Director Ruben Wall at 919-435-9561 or rwall@wakeforestnc.gov.

  1. I think this is an AWESOME idea!
    Building awareness to community, health and families as well as getting to know our beautiful park. I love Joyner Park and enjoy Yoga and Energy Movements on Sunday mornings! Whoever was responsible for this program… hats off to you!
