Active Towns - Invidious

Active Towns

Profiling people-oriented places that create a culture of activity for all ages & abilities

In 2012, I launched the non-profit Advocates for Healthy Communities as an effort to help promote and create healthy, active places. Since that time I've been exploring, documenting, and profiling established, emerging, and aspiring Active Towns wherever they might be. The goal is simple: produce high-quality multimedia content to help inspire the creation of more safe and inviting, environments that promote a "Culture of Activity" for "All Ages & Abilities".

Thanks for tuning in, I hope you find this content helpful. #AvantLink
