ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF ACTIVE COMMUTING!
Have an out-of-car experience, smell the flowers, feel the wind in your face, stretch your legs and hear your neighbor say hello.

Improve Your Health: People who walk or bike to work arrive at work feeling refreshed, less stressed and ready to start their day. People who switch from sedentary commuting to cycling or walking, improve the health of their heart, lungs and blood vessels and are less likely to be ill.

Reduce Pollution: Everyone knows that cars pollute the air. But did you know that much of that pollution ends up in our rivers and lakes? A bicycle commuter who lives two miles from work prevents nearly 15 pounds of auto emissions from polluting our air and water in a year. Commute with a FREE bus ride with SKAT. Use the free bus pass, printed on the Pdf brochure below , for a free ride on every Skagit County Walk-n-Roll event day.

Save Time: For a short commute, biking or walking may actually be quicker than driving and is a great way to squeeze regular exercise into your busy schedule.

Save Money: Active commuting saves wear and tear on your car and gas money.
