Fitness doesn’t have to involve weight lifting or an expensive gym membership.
In Clark County, paths to a healthier lifestyle can be found everywhere, including on a circuit around Vancouver at the first Sunday Streets Alive this weekend.
The event will shut down motorized traffic on a 4.2-mile loop with entertainment and exercise hubs at Fort Vancouver, Clark College, Marshall Center, downtown Vancouver, Uptown Village and John Ball Park. Motorists don’t need to fret, though — flaggers will direct cars through streets that cross the route during the festivities.
