When you walk with the German Village Walking Club, you can expect consistency, variety, and community. When you walk with us, you’ll meet people who start as walking companions and quickly become friends—real friends who enjoy lingering after walks for coffee and conversation and who support one another’s health and fitness goals.

​

When you walk with us, you can count on us. We show up every Saturday—rain or shine—with rotating routes through urban parks and downtown neighborhoods. We offer 3- and 5-mile options, so you can choose a distance that fits your mood, your fitness, or your time.

​​

Beyond the weekly walks, the club offers opportunities for people to formally come together for activities such as group breakfasts, volunteering to support the South Side neighborhood, cheering each other on at races, and celebrating together at our members-only holiday party. Just as often, though, connections happen informally. Folks gather for happy hours, spontaneous meetups, and seasonal events (think: arts festival in the summer and holiday lights at Christmastime). Because community doesn’t only happen on Saturday mornings.

​

If you sign up for the newsletter, you can expect to receive a weekly email with links to helpful information about health and fitness. That's also where we share occasional news about the accomplishments of club members. 

​​​​

Most of all, you can expect real people, genuine connections, and friendships that extend well beyond walking. If you’re ready to walk, we’ll be there.
