Sixty-eight Year Old Commits to Start Bicycling


Low Impact participants built up their stamina as they built up their chances to win a bicycle from Activate Martinsville/Henry County. The Low Impact Beginners Walk is held Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from noon to 1:00 p.m. at the YMCA. This program is free to residents and hosted by Activate and the YMCA.
Jean Royall was the lucky winner of the 2008 “Get Active, Get Healthy, Have Fun” program and received a Raleigh Venture Comfort Bike valued at $300. Ms. Royall commuted from Emmett Street to the YMCA after receiving her bike.
