Description: Walking in the park
Get Healthy - walk to and in the park!  
Help us calculate how long it takes to walk (or bike) to the park from key spots: Codman Square; Centre Street in JP; First Church Roxbury; or Bromley Heath. We want to encourage exercise and lessen our carbon footprint.
Call 617-442-4141 or
email if you'd like to walk the walk and track the time it takes for the average person to get to the park from different neighborhoods. We'll put it all together in an online walking pamphlet for Franklin Park.

 

 

 

 

BOTTLE BILL ACTION ALERT! Call your state senator and representative - urge them to actively support the Bottle Bill. More than a hundred cities and towns across the Commonwealth, including Boston, and a majority of voters support the updated Bottle Bill. It will bring money to state coffers and keep trash out of our parks - saving on maintenance and making parks cleaner. Our elected officials are not hearing from enough people to make a difference. Please contact yours today.
