“Walktober” invites downtown employees and visitors to walk!

The Wellness Institute of Greater Buffalo is proud to partner with Visit Buffalo Niagara to enjoy a series of free, guided, noontime Wellness Walks- beginning and ending at the Buffalo Niagara Visitor’s Center in downtown Buffalo Wednesdays in October.

Institute Executive Director Phil Haberstro hopes to encourage the downtown community and its’ guests to support the U.S. Surgeon General’s “Call to Action” promoting walking/rolling and walkable communities by participating in the free 30 minute mid-day walks. 

Walkers are invited to convene prior to the 12:10pm walks at Buffalo Niagara Visitor Center located at the corner of Lafayette Sq. and Washington St. in downtown Buffalo. Each week’s route will explore a different corridor of the city center, highlighting historic sites and architectural treasures. The guided walks will also provide education on pedestrian safety in urban environments. Walks will start at 12:10pm on the following Wednesdays:

• Wednesday, October 03, 2018
• Wednesday, October 10, 2018
• Wednesday, October 17, 2018
• Wednesday October 24, 2018
