Join us for One Walk to Rule Them All, a Lord of the Rings-themed exercise initiative that will inspire you to participate in your favorite types of exercises! To participate, simply pick up a printed tracker from either South Regional Library (4505 S. Alston Ave.) or North Regional Library (221 Milton Rd) or click HERE to request a printable PDF via email. Trackers will be available beginning August 24th.

How it works: 

  • You have until November 30th to complete at least four of the five challenges listed on the tracker. 
  • You can join in at any time during September, October, or November!
  • You can do any type of exercise or physical activity you like! 
  • Use your tracker to track the number of minutes you exercise.
  • For each challenge on the tracker you complete, bring your tracker in to South Regional Library or North Regional Library to claim your completion button for that challenge. You will also receive a lanyard upon your first visit. (while supplies last). If you prefer, you can claim them all at the end of the challenge.
  • Return your tracker to South or North Regional by December 10th to be entered into the grand prize raffle. 
  • If you complete all five challenges on the tracker, you earn two entries.
  • You can earn extra entries into the raffle by attending specific programs/events throughout September, October and November. Click HERE for a list of those programs. You must return a completed tracker to be eligible to receive extra entries.
  • All ages are welcome to participate, however we do not have separate prizes for different age groups. 

There will be five winners! The Grand Prizes are:
