Grab a pair of sneakers and get ready to move: UC Walks is set for Wednesday, June 15.
UC Walks is the annual systemwide event that encourages University of California faculty and staff members, retirees and students to take time out of their day to go for a stroll in the name of wellness, community and campus spirit.
At UC Merced, the event is from 8:30 a.m. to noon, and getting involved is easy. Participants should bring their CatCards to check in at the UC Walks registration table, and each person is asked to walk for at least 15 minutes. Each registered participant will receive a free UC Walks T-shirt while supplies last.
Walks take place on campus and at the Promenade, Castle Commerce Center, the Parcade Building, Mondo Building and the Fresno Center. Participants can walk wherever they choose or follow a Cat Trails path if oncampus or at Castle.
Several of UC Merced’s campus leaders have led walks in previous years and will do so again this year.
