Sample Email to Share Leading Up to Walk to Work Day

Subject: Walk to Work Day is coming up on April 16, and you can help us win the Golden Millipede award!

Dear Colleagues,

Walk to Work Day is the annual celebration of everyone who walks in San Francisco.

This year’s Walk to Work Day is coming up on Thursday, April 16, 2019 – and we are participating!

Here’s what this means for you:

We hope you’ll walk all (or part) of your commute on April 16. Stop by one of the Hubs on your way into work to get a goody bag of freebies and treats, plus enter a raffle for awesome prizes.

Let me know if you participate by 10:00 AM on April 16 (don’t worry, I’ll remind you). If we have a lot of people walk, we could win the Golden Millipede for the workplace with the highest participation (we’re competing with other companies our size).

In the meantime, feel free to share on social media that you’ll walk on April 10 with #WalktoWorkDay and our company handle.

We hope you’ll be part of this fun and healthy celebration!
