Community Corner: How walkable is Thunderbolt? Healthy Savannah wants you to help them find out.

You’re invited to join Healthy Savannah and local leaders on Tuesday, September 16, for a special stroll to identify walking barriers in the city of Thunderbolt.
Devin Frails is the organization’s Physical Activity Program Manager.

Community members are expected to join local leaders from the City of Thunderbolt and Friends of Tide to Town’s Community Outreach Team in identifying barriers to walking and sharing input on how to make the area safer and more connected.

The 90-minute walk will start at 7:30 a.m. from the Tubby’s Tank House parking lot, 2909 River Dr. in Thunderbolt, a historic riverside community on Savannah’s eastside along the Wilmington River.
