Keep It Simple Stroll

Celebrate National Employee Health and Fitness Day with a walk around Beebe Lake on Wednesday, May 20 from 11:00a.m.-1:00p.m. Meet in front of the Toboggan Lodge (near MVR) any time between 11:00 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. to begin your trek. Special guests from Cornell Transportation Services and Cornell Plantations will be stationed along the route to answer any questions you might have for them. Ask about alternative ways to commute to work, information about bus routes, van pool and more. Stop by the Plantations table to touch and smell a sampling of potted herbs and flowers.

In a conscious effort to reduce waste and cost for this event the Cornell Wellness Program had made some changes for this year.

  • If you know you'll be getting thirsty on this 1-mile walk, please bring your own water bottle, already filled, to the event; we will not be handing out water bottles.

  • Prizes will not be awarded; your prize is the intrinsic enjoyment you will feel after walking around a beautiful trail taking in the sights and sounds of nature.

  • After the walk, participants will receive a small Hershey's chocolate parting gift that goes along with the theme "Keep It Simple Stroll."

Rain or shine, we look forward to seeing you at the event! Open to the entire Cornell community. No registration needed. Questions? Call 255-3886 or email wellness@cornell.edu. If you would like to participate but are unable due to a disability please ask us about an alternative way to take part.
