Past community walks included activities such as walks and\/or runs through public trails and across local versions of the \u201cMighty Mac.\u201d Host organizations will receive free promotional materials and a guide to creating and hosting a community walk. In addition, your event will be endorsed by the Governor\u2019s Council on Physical Fitness, Sports and Health and you will have the opportunity to use our logo on all materials.<\/p>\n<p>This year Labor Day Community Walks will take place on Monday, September 2, 2013.
