Walking into Wellness: Lakeshore Recreation's Free Indoor Walking - Come Join Us!

At Lakeshore Recreation, we understand that wellness is a journey that includes both body and mind. As fall and winter's crisp air sets in, it can be tempting to stay cozy inside. However, staying active is just as crucial during these chillier months! This fall, winter, and spring, we are excited to offer free indoor walking sessions for everyone in our Saugeen Shores community.


A Welcoming Space for Everyone


Picture this: you enter a bright, spacious hall where warmth greets you as you step in. This environment is perfect for shaking off winter blues and working towards a healthier lifestyle. Our indoor walking program serves as a wonderful space for all ages to gather, move, and connect with each other.


Walking, while simple, has significant health benefits. According to the American Heart Association, just 30 minutes of brisk walking five times a week can decrease your risk of heart disease by about 30 to 40 percent. Plus, no special gear is needed—just wear clean, comfortable indoor shoes! We also have an elevator for full accessibility.

Mental Health Matters


As the daylight fades and winter approaches, many may experience a dip in their mood. Engaging in regular physical activity, like walking, can be a powerful antidote to seasonal affective disorder (SAD). According to a study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology, regular moderate exercise can reduce depressive symptoms by more than 50%.


At Lakeshore Recreation, we believe in the importance of nurturing both the body and mind. We encourage you to make walking a regular part of your day, especially in winter when enthusiasm may wane. Bring a friend or use this time for yourself; both can help boost your spirits!
