Thousands of Milwaukee Public Schools students and students across the world will be tying up their laces and pumping up their bike tires for International Walk and Bike to School Day on Wednesday, Oct. 9. "Walking and biking to school is a forgotten but easy way to be healthy and reduce pollution and helps kids arrive ready to learn" says Jessica Binder, Program and Policy Director for the Wisconsin Bike Fed. In addition, over $2,000 will be awarded to schools this fall.
