Lunchtime “Walk and Talk” on April 15

Come join the first "walk and talk" of the season on Friday, April 15. Group leaders for this fun and informative walk are Chris John and Jennifer Giles from the Student Recreation and Wellness Center. Participants will learn about the "pollinators" as they get some of 10,000 steps for the day. This is a great way to learn about and enjoy the beautiful Kent Campus, enjoy time with colleagues and get some exercise.  

We will meet at the black squirrel located between the Kent Student Center and University Library at noon with departure at 12:10 p.m. Participants will circle around campus, arriving back to the squirrel just before 1 p.m. Registration is not required for this activity. Just come and enjoy the walk!
