What is Walk for Wellness?

​

Walk for Wellness started in 2023 as a major fundraiser for PWC, to bring people together, to promote a healthy lifestyle and to support the many programs and services that are provided to the residents of Peachland.

The Walk for Wellness is more than just about walking, we want to raise awareness about the importance of wellness in our community.

Wellness means different things to different people. Take a minute to think about what it means to you, whatever brings you joy contributes to your wellness!

Participants are members of a team, a team could be many members, though, we have had a one-person team demonstrating that it is not all in the numbers!

​

​

The kickoff event will be May 6,2024, we will meet at the pier across from Bliss and we will walk together as far as 4th Street (or as far as you want).

​

The wrap-up party and awards will be held at Cousins Park on Saturday, July 6, 2024 from 10am to 2pm. Papa Thom will provide the music, our Town Crier will guide the activities we have planned.
