Join us for a casual walk as we explore Pineville's new Little Sugar Creek Greenway segment. This free and family-friendly event is co-hosted by Sustain Charlotte, AARP Charlotte, Partners for Parks and the Carolina Thread Trail. We're working together to advocate for an equitable — and fast — expansion of Mecklenburg County's greenway network.

We will be joined by Mecklenburg Park & Recreation Planner, Gwen Cook, who will be guiding the walk and teaching us about how greenways are designed and built. You will also have a chance to get involved with the efforts of Sustain Charlotte and our Growing our Greenway partners to expand our greenway network.
This is a family-friendly event that is suitable for people of all ages and abilities. All participants will be required to sign a waiver upon arrival.
Where: The event will start and end at the same location: Belle Johnston Community Center 1000 Johnston Dr, Pineville, NC 28134. Look for people in Sustain Charlotte t-shirts when you arrive to check in.
CATS bus: CATS bus routes 42 and 58 service the area, although it will require a 15 to 20 minute walk to reach the event site. Find your route at ridetransit.org

Everyone is welcome to explore more of the greenway after the event ends. This will be a comfortable and casual event. You are welcome to walk less distance than the main group or to add additional miles at the end of our time together.
