For those persons and families looking for something healthy and exciting to do on Saturday, April 27, 2012, in Puyallup, please join us (Friends of the Riverwalk) for the "4th Annual Families in Motion Day" event taking place from 9a.m. to 2p.m. along the Puyallup Riverwalk Trail. 

Friends of the Riverwalk, which is affiliated with the Foothills Rails-to-Trails Coalition, will once again partner with the city of Puyallup, Goodwill Industries, and others to make this event enjoyable for participants of all ages.

Friends of the Riverwalk are proud to have partnered with local Veteran Groups in advocating for establishment of Veterans Park which is located at the Riverwalk Trail, Trailhead adjacent to the Milwaukee Bridge on 5th Street Northeast. We continue to partner with the city of Puyallup and others to improve beautification of the trail for the pleasure and enjoyment of trail users.

There are a number of activities are planned and early risers can start by enjoying either a 10K walk sponsored by the Daffodil Valley Volkssports Association or Veterans
Park Race along the Puyallup Riverwalk Trail. The Official Opening Ceremony will occur at 10am in the Goodwill Parking lot located at 1200 4th Street NW - just off River Road.

There will also be a number of booths/exhibitions, children's games, music and opportunities to walk, run, stroll, skate, bicycle, or walk your dog on the trail during the day's event. 

This is a chance to come out and experience the Puyallup Riverwalk Trail firsthand and enjoy a number of activities!
