At Lakes And Grapes, we believe in the power of movement, the joy of being outdoors, and the magic of community. That’s why we created Walk Club—a fun, engaging way to bring our local community together while promoting health and well-being. But what exactly is Walk Club, and why do we love it? Let’s dive in!
What is Walk Club?
Walk Club is our community initiative aimed at encouraging people to get outside, move their bodies, and enjoy the beauty of nature. Whether you're a seasoned walker or just starting your fitness journey, Walk Club welcomes everyone! We meet regularly to explore local trails, parks, and scenic routes around Traverse City, all while enjoying the fresh air and stunning landscapes.
Why We Do It
-
Embracing the Outdoors
There’s something incredibly refreshing about being outside. The crisp air, the sounds of nature, and the beautiful surroundings invigorate our spirits and energize our bodies. Walking allows us to soak in the beauty of our environment and truly appreciate the stunning landscapes Traverse City has to offer. -
The Joy of Movement
Movement is essential for both physical and mental health. Walking is a fantastic way to keep active without feeling like a chore. It promotes cardiovascular health, boosts mood, and can even spark creativity. Plus, it's a low-impact activity that everyone can enjoy, making it accessible to all ages and fitness levels. -
Building Community
Walk Club is more than just a walking group; it’s a gathering of friends and neighbors who share a common goal—connecting with each other. Walking side by side allows for meaningful conversations, laughter, and the chance to forge new friendships. We love seeing familiar faces and welcoming newcomers to our community! -
Coming Together Over Local Wine
After our walks, we gather back at the store for a chance to unwind and connect further. It’s a perfect opportunity to enjoy a glass of local wine featured at Lakes And Grapes. Sometimes we even enjoy sips of Rosé by the Bay as we share stories from the walk. We celebrate our accomplishments, discuss our favorite local wines, and continue the camaraderie we've built on the trail. There’s nothing quite like sipping wine with friends after a refreshing walk! Plus, we offer post-walk rewards, including an epic giveaway and special discounts for our walkers! It’s our way of saying thank you for joining us in this journey.
Join Us!
Whether you’re looking to meet new people, enjoy the outdoors, or simply add a little movement to your day, Walk Club is the perfect fit. We invite everyone in the community to join us on our next adventure. Grab your walking shoes, bring a friend, and let’s explore the beauty of Traverse City together!
