Take a stroll with Webster’s residents and leaders

The Town of Webster invites the public to attend its Oct. 27 Community Stroll to help identify ways to improves the community's health, walkability and social interactions. Starting time is 6 p.m. for this one-hour interactive walk starting at the Southwestern Child Development Center and ending at Town Hall where participants can provide further input on ways to improve Webster. Food and drinks will be provided!

 

Webster obtained a grant through the Southwestern Commission to identify how it can improve walkability and the community's health through strategic facility investments, an emphasis on promoting physical activity and the community's history, and updating existing policies. The walk will be led by the consultant the town was able to hire to help with the grant. 

This slow-paced walk will begin at the baseball field with discussions on what the community would like to see at the complex to increase its use and provide a place for residents and visitors to socialize and recreate. It will then proceed to the intersections with Buchanan Loop road to discuss potential improvements along that route. The walk will end at town hall where participants can provide input on a variety of ideas for Webster's future.
