Volunteer: Embrace Your Pace Walk VolunteerWe are excited to introduce a new initiative titled the "Embrace Your Pace Initiative.” For context, the Senior Activity Center's existing Outdoor Adventures Group typically meets at The Hub/Volunteer Center/MOWA Parking Area and explores the Eisenbahn Trail, covering various points of interest, including downtown West Bend, River Walk, Riverside Park, Labyrinth, Regner Park, etc. Recognizing the challenge of accommodating individuals with varying levels of mobility, Interfaith Caregivers of Washington County and the Center’s team proposed the formation of an entirely new group. This specific Outdoor Adventures Group will be specifically tailored for individuals with canes, walkers, walking aids, wheelchairs (accompanied by a helper), etc. Thus the "Embrace Your Pace Initiative.” Need: - We are looking for volunteers to help guide the individuals along the Eisenbahn Trail for a up to a 30-minute walk. - Starting point is on the East side of The Hub - near the outdoor sculptures. This is also where there is a public parking lot for additional parking. "Eisenbahn trail parking in West Bend" - Walks will be held the first Wednesday of the month (Weather permitting) - volunteers can join any month they are able. (June 5, July 3, Aug 7, Sept 4, Oct 2, Nov 6) - Timeframe: 10-11am. Help gather the participants starting at 10am - prompt walk start at 10:30am. - If there are numerous volunteers, you can “buddy up” with a participant for conversation. - Participants are welcome to gather at The Hub for coffee and conversation afterwards.
