On the Move for Veterans - Kickoff - Saturday, December 14, 2024 - Riverparks, 1924 S Riverside Dr, Tulsa, Oklahoma
Activate Oklahoma and the Coffee Bunker have combined forces to deploy tools and resources to benefit veterans to improve and manage their mental health. The AO (area of operation) is a family-friendly and supportive environment using a social walk/run, couch to 5K, training program. The On the Move program utilizes community-building through social connection and physical exercise to improve emotional and mental health.
We are holding two meet-and-greet walk sessions to demonstrate and educate on how the On the Move program can help you reach your well-being goals. These events will provide information and gather final input before establishing the On the Move walk/run training program in January 2025. It’s FREE to attend and participate! Please join us if you can!
