"Through 'Walk With the Mayor,' I can get to know residents and be active at the same time," Hovland said. "We'll walk a different route each month to see different parts of our community. Some walks will be indoors, some outdoors during warmer months."

Starting points for future walks will be announced every month on the City of Edina's website. For more information on the event, contact Recreation Supervisor Donna Tilsner at 952-826-0432.
