Walk the Bridge this month with Dunston Primary!

Through our community-based initiative the MUSC Boeing Center for Children's Wellness promotes free walks over the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge the 1^st Saturday of every month. Over 500 participants have collectively logged nearly 45,000 miles! 

In January, CCSD Wellness guru Dave Spurlock formed the CCSD ADMIN team and resumed the weekly bridge walk format as an opportunity for school administrators to get in to shape. The wellness committee lead at Dunston Primary, Cathy White, and her school team will lead the weekly walks through March. Bring your team, family, or co-workers out on Saturday mornings at 9 AM on the Charleston side of the bridge (East Bay and Cooper Street –city parking lot)! Your school receives points in the wellness checklist for participating!
