Sole Mates' Community Walk, Saturday, December 27 at the Charleston Marina, 10:00am - 11:00am. December Trail: Shore Acres (Cape Arago Trails). Meet the Sole Mates! In May of 2023, Coos Bay Public Library, Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU), and twenty members of the Coos Bay community formed the Sole Mates. This partnership began a two-year research study to learn the effects of walking as a group and engaging civically to improve public health and walkability in our community. The Sole Mates decided to use funds awarded by OHSU to create a free walking guide to inspire other community members to get outside, walk, and improve their health. Coos Bay Public Library and the Sole Mates, will co-host Sole Mates’ Community Walk on every fourth Saturday. The December walk will be held at Shore Acres.
