Walk (run or hike) Southeast Alaska this summer without leaving Ketchikan! Track your miles between May 1 and September 1 and see what communities you can reach. The further the community, the more chances you have to win great prizes in the local drawings. Walk at least 150 miles and be entered to win TWO round trip tickets from Alaska Airlines!*
It’s absolutely free to participate.
There are two ways to keep track of the miles walked, registered participants will choose to use
1) an application on their smart phone or
2) they will receive a Walk Southeast Mileage Tracker via email once we receive your registration (which you can print out). You can also pick up a paper tracker at the Ketchikan Wellness Coalition (602 Dock St - end of the hall past 55 North Bakery) or at the Rec Center.
In order to receive your tracker and a few friendly reminders throughout the summer
please register with the email you check regularly!
All registered participants who submit their Mileage Tracker by September 2 will be entered into the local drawing and the Alaska Airlines* (Southeast Alaska Wide) prize drawing. All participants will receive a Walk Southeast sticker when they turn in their trackers. The more you walk, the more chances you have to win. Get ready, the walking begins on May 1!
Walk Southeast, Fly Alaska!
We are also competing as a COMMUNITY against Juneau, Petersburg, Wrangell, and Sitka for the 'Walk Southeast Alaska Airlines Trophy' (made by a local Ketchikan artist). Let's put on our walking shoes and show the rest of our Southeast communities that we can out-walk them and bring the trophy home!
