"It was a beautiful morning for Lincoln School's 'Walk to School with the Mayor' today," DeSalvo noted in a Wednesday Facebook post. "Thanks everyone!"

This has been an ongoing program this spring, for schoolkids to walk to school with the mayor, to help promote a healthy lifestyle as part of the Mayors Wellness Campaign initiative. For a list of the various walks, click here.

Next week is the last session of the year, walking to Kindergarten Center. Kids -- and any parents who want to join in -- should meet promptly at 8:25 a.m. at Lincoln Park, at the corner of Lincoln Avenue, on Wednesday, June 1. The walks are rain or shine.
