For the second year in a row, the 2023 Streets Alive celebration took place Sunday afternoon in the north Lincoln neighborhoods that surround UPCO Park to Huntington Elementary School. This year, a total of 104 participants lined the closed off streets and visited each stop that had an activity related to community resources or a way to stay healthy. Several activities showed families different ways they could exercise and play at no cost.
Partnership for a Healthy Lincoln's annual health, wellness, and fitness outreach festival will be back in the University Place neighborhood on Sunday, Sept. 24 from 1 - 4:30 PM. Two miles of traffic-free fitness, music, art, fresh local produce, and free health resources.
