Webinar Info, etc.

The Moose Lake Active Living Coalition had a productive meeting on Tuesday, January 4th! We identified some priorities that we will be focusing on in the next six months. They are as follows:
     - Have a Fit City page on the Chamber's Website
     - Involvement in existing events: Moose Run, MS Bike Ride, etc.
     - Development, printing, and disbursement of Walking/Biking Map
     - Identify and address barriers on Arrowhead for walking and biking


Watch for progress soon!
