Join us for a 3-mile walk to Governor’s Square Mall (1500 Apalachee Pkwy., Tallahassee, FL 32301) — with the opportunity to stop for a water break or continue walking back to Kleman Plaza - another 2 miles. From Klemen Plaza, Lauren will lead the final 3 miles of the entire 1,500 mile walk across the state, ending on South Adams Street in town for a Safety Fair and celebration for all ages!
The Safety Fair is a FREE, family-friendly block party packed with fun!

Families can also visit with law enforcement and fire rescue — plus crowd favorites like face painting, a bounce house, snow cones, therapy animals, music, food, and more!
Just like in years past, an UBER code will be provided to walkers to cover the cost of a ride back to any location necessary following the walk or Safety Fair.
