Sole Mates' Community Walk

April Trail: Coos Bay Boardwalk

Meet the Sole Mates!

In May of 2023, Coos Bay Public Library, Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), and twenty members of the Coos Bay community formed the Sole Mates. This partnership began a two-year research study to learn the effects of walking as a group and engaging civically to improve public health and walkability in our community. The Sole Mates decided to use funds awarded by OHSU to create a free walking guide to inspire other community members to get outside, walk, and improve their health.

Coos Bay Public Library and the Sole Mates, will co-host Sole Mates’ Community Walk on every fourth Saturday. March walk will be held at Coos Bay Boardwalk (Meet & park at CB Visitor Center, 50 Central Ave). 

Every month, we will meet at the next trail in the Walking Guide. Walks are FREE to join and open to everyone! 

Let's walk!
