West Palm Beach, FL – Murray Guari Trial Attorneys, a personal injury, pedestrian accident and product liability firm in West Palm Beach, is proud to support International Walk to School Month, a month long awareness held in October every year where schools across the world join forces to cut carbon and select the healthy option for getting to school. This year’s ‘International Walk to School Day’ is October 6, 2010.
In the U.S., International Walk to School Day is expected to include 5,000 schools from all 50 states. Walkers from the U.S. will join children and adults in 40 countries around the world. Walk to School events work to create safer routes for walking and bicycling and emphasize the importance of issues such as increasing physical activity among children, pedestrian safety, traffic congestion, concern for the environment and building connections between families, schools and the broader community.
Around the globe, International Walk to School Month brings together more than 40 countries in recognition of the common interest in walking to school. In its thirteenth year, U.S. participation reached a record high with more than 3,300 events from all fifty states and the District of Columbia registering in 2009.
‘Walk to School’ was established as “International” in 2000, when Canada and the UK joined with the U.S. to celebrate. In 2006, world-wide interest led the International Walk to School Committee to establish International Walk to School Month – countries pick a day, week or use the entire month of October to promote walking to school. For more information, please visit International Walk to School in the USA or National Center for Safe Routes to School (www.saferoutesinfo.org).
