Bike Walk Kentucky advocates for safe walking and biking in communities across Kentucky, promoting health, safety, and quality of life through workshops and initiatives that improve infrastructure and encourage active living.

Join Bike Walk Kentucky and the Kentucky State Physical Activity and Nutrition Program (SPAN) for a regional Active Living Workshop focused on practical ways communities can support safe walking and biking. This workshop is designed for community members, local officials, public health professionals, planners, advocates, and anyone interested in making their community safer and more active.
