What is Walk It Off, you ask? Every Wednesday through the summer in Alton Baker Park, we turn movement into a celebration with guided and independent walks, weekly raffles and family-friendly fun for all ages. Each week features a fun theme—think costumes, color days and more—and joining in on the theme gives you extra chances to win great prizes. So grab your walking shoes, bring a friend (or the whole family!), and come stroll, laugh, and play with us in the sunshine.
Below are the details from 2025, to give you a sense of what Walk It Off is all about!
