PRESS RELEASE
Title:  Safe Routes to School Polar Walk Scheduled for February 16, 2011

February 7, 2011 - On February 16, 2011 all students are encouraged to walk, bike, ski, sled or bus to school for Polar Walk, one of three annual Safe Routes to School events to encourage safe, active travel.

Friends and parents are also encouraged to participate! More active travel means less emissions and traffic danger around our schools, as well as healthier students.  Elementary Students will receive stickers and hot chocolate Junior High students will receive raffle tickets for prizes. New this year, Safe Routes to School will hide a stuffed polar bear on a route to each school campus for traveling students to find and take to the school office to redeem a prize.

Questions? Please contact Brooke Lowry, Moscow Safe Routes to School Coordinator at blowry at uidaho.edu<mailto:blowry at uidaho.edu>. Watch out for polar bears!
