Hi!

What glorious weather we are experiencing in the Northwest. It is perfect for walking and other fun out door activities. It is hard to believe, but here we are in the middle of July racing through our summer months.

If you are new to WOW, you might not know of the trainings and events offered.

This month BreathFit is back on the calendar. A new offering happening in August is Heel Your Soles - all about your feet. Our fall event is the Sisters Stride into Autumn

It just so happens to be our most popular destination event.  Bask in the beauty of

the Deschutes National Forest on this 10K/15K weekend getaway. It is a fun fall weekend in Central Oregon. For more information on programs offered, click here.

We have three locations of the WOW Walk Club hosted by REI--Portland, Clackamas and Bend. Come walk with us.

Best — Judy
