Water walking is a unique way to participate in the iWALK movement.  It's easy on the joints, and good for the spirit.  And it's happening in Petaluma!  Forevers Aquatics and Citizens For Cavanagh Pool are taking iWALK to the water with a free water-walking event.  It happens Saturday, September 18th from 10 am to 1 pm at Petaluma's Cavanagh Pool [8th and G Streets]:  The only outdoor community pool heated at a soothing 86 degrees.

Not everyone is able to walk on land, but those who aren't are often able to walk in water:  Exercising in the buoyancy of water and warmth of a heated pool is especially beneficial to those who have difficulty with weight bearing or balance, suffer from joint pain or muscle weakness, or are recovering from surgery or other injuries.

This free event features an accessible pool (with full stairs and a hand rail), water instructors, music and door prizes (including iWALK hats and passes to Cavanagh Pool's Aqua Therapy & Fitness class). You don't need to know how to swim to participate.  For more details, email iwalkcavanaghpool@yahoo.com
