Local businesses
Coffee, food and shops that support local walkers. Own one? Join the walking map.
Our walking groups
Two friendly, slow-paced groups organized by Lisa Davis. Free to join, no sign-up fee, no walker left behind.
Walk with us
Free, friendly and unhurried. Co-ed and beginner friendly. You get one email a few days before each walk with the meeting spot, parking, the route and the weather.

Group details
Get your business on the walking map
Local walkers use this map to plan their mornings. Put your business in front of them for $8 a month. Your listing shows on the map and on every walk page within about a mile of you. Lisa reviews each listing before it goes live.
What walkers see
Every walk page lists member businesses within about a mile of the start, closest first. Here is how a listing looks next to a walk.
Good to know
- Restroom access is the most-asked question before a walk. If walkers are welcome to use yours, say so in your description.
- Our group meets Sunday mornings around 10:00, so a weekend-morning perk gets noticed.
- You can ask to update or remove your listing at any time.
