The Union Hospital Community Walking Program
If you are walking for health and fitness, the Community Walking Program (CWP) helps keep you on track, motivated, and rewarded for your efforts.
How to Get Started
Complete the CWP Membership Registration form and obtain your membership card. Stock up on Walking Record cards. They include contain everything you need to know. Then, start walking!
Membership Registration Forms and Walking Records are also available at the Mall Office during regular business hours.
Where Can You Walk?
Walk anywhere, at any time. We hope you walk daily or at least several times each week. Walk at New Towne Mall, at your local high school stadium track, on a treadmill at your fitness center, on your neighborhood sidewalks… anywhere you can enjoy this most recommended form of exercise.
We're Talking MINUTES, Not Miles!
The CWP recognizes minutes walked, instead of miles, to make the challenge equal
among walkers of all ages and fitness levels. Keep a record of your minutes walked each day and watch the total climb steadily. We'll ask you to track your walking minutes in our Walking Record.
Earn Rewards and Recognition for Reaching Your Goals!
As you reach goals of 500, 1,500, 3,000 and 6,000 minutes walked, you'll earn a gift from the CWP and we'll include your name on the recognition display at New Towne Mall and on our Facebook page. CWP members will enjoy exclusive benefits provided by Mall merchants. Best of all you'll have the satisfaction of achieving a significant goal that will enhance your health and fitness levels.
