An "article from the May Costco Connections magazine extolling the health benefits of walking, hiking, biking and just being outdoors" is below. "In the article they suggest joining a Volkssport club as one way to gain inspiration. Couldn't state our mission more succinctly than that: to inspire people to be outdoors for better health."
Hi NW Walkers,
Attached is our latest events list. There have been many changes and I've tried to catch all the cancellations and date moves, but if you see something I've missed let me know and I'll submit a correction. A new Seasonal event is being added by CRVC at Fort Stevens on the OR coast and several other coastal walks are under consideration. Louise and I attended a DVVA walk in Puyallup WA yesterday. It was a great event, carefully hosted for safety and appeared to be well attended. For those considering events in the near term I encourage you to follow through. With a little attention to procedure we can meet state/local restrictions and get to see more of our walking friends.

Soren Kierkegaard Future Events List (February) Hi Everyone,
I seem to have caused a little confusion in my Walk Talk and want to quickly add some clarification. In paragraph 11 I wrote: - US to host the IVV Olympiad in Feb 2023 in San Antonio TX, prior to the IML event - We voted to hold a general membership meeting in accord with our Bylaws in San Antonio and have an online meeting for officer elections and other business in June in lieu of an AVA convention We're still working toward a convention this June in Madison WI. The board voted to have a general membership meeting in San Antonio in February 2023 following the Olympiad, with a separate online meeting toward the summer of 2023 to take care of the other usual business conducted during a convention. Our reasoning is that we want to have only one major event for clubs to attend that year and also keep the workload manageable for the national office, board and committees in 2023. v/r Tom For walkers who are residents of Oregon
2021 Winter Challenge OR For walkers who are residents of Washington 2021 Winter Challenge WA Happy New Year! I hope this message finds you ready to charge into 2021 with renewed vigor and optimism. There are lots of openings in the calendar for planning events in 2021, so consider adding an event or two. With the postponement of the regional conference, the end of May is open for several more local events. Tom NW Regional Director 829 NW 44th Ave Camas WA 98607 505-298-1256 Future Events List (January) The Olympia Holiday walk scheduled for Dec 12 under sanction 116921 has been cancelled. We moved the sanction to May 2021 and the Capitol Volkssport Club is reworking their plans.
