Stride Into ‘Walktober’ With Pedestrian Bingo and a Walk With RPAC

October 1, 2024

Celebrate “Walktober” this month in Rockville by experiencing our city on foot and transit while playing bingo. 

Walktober presents a wonderful way to walk while the weather is still warm. Pedestrian Bingo, sponsored by the Rockville Pedestrian Advocacy Committee, provides a way to experience the city just as people who regularly walk Rockville do. 

Find a Pedestrian Bingo card on RPAC’s webpage at www.rockvillemd.gov/rpac. Once you do, use your feet to hit the city’s streets, completing activities such as walking to a city park, taking transit or searching for a neighborhood that’s missing a sidewalk. 

Once you call “Bingo!” after completing the activities in each square, bring your card to City Hall or contact pedestrian and bicycle coordination Bryan Barnett-Woods at bbwoods@rockvillemd.gov to receive a small prize.

RPAC will host a Walktober Walk beginning at 5:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 10 at a location to be determined. Visit www.rockvillemd.gov/rpac for details on this and other Walktober events as they become available.
