What is Music City Moves!?
Music City Moves Kids!
Walking or bicycling to school helps children get healthy physical activity and reduces traffic around schools. Public health officials have pointed to physical inactivity and a lact of safe places to walk and bicycle as a factor in the obesity epidemic among America’s youth.
Music City Moves Kids! is a program designed to increase physical activity among children in Davidson County. Initiatives include the annual Walk to School Day during Walk Nashville Week in October and bicycle and pedestrian safety programs in area schools.
