OUR MISSION STATEMENT

Promote and organize noncompetitive fitness activities that encourage lifelong fun, fitness and friendship for all ages and abilities.

Tarheel State Walkers is part of America's Walking Club, the American Volkssport Association (AVA), a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to providing Fun, Fitness and Friendship through walking, biking and other sporting events. The term “volkssport” is German for “sport of the people”. The AVA has a nationwide, grassroots network of over 160 active clubs nationwide presenting more than 2,500 volkssporting events each year.

We welcome people of any background, age, and ability to come participate in our noncompetitive sporting events. Set your own pace at any of our events.

About The Tarheel State Walkers

The Tarheel State Walkers group has 58 events in 52 locations in North and South Carolina. We are a family-oriented organization open to all people of all ages. Leashed dogs are welcome, too.

About Our Events

Events are free for those who do not desire the award or IVV Credit. Children under 16 can walk free for credit if with a paying adult. Unique awards may be available at an additional cost. Credit-only is $4.00 for each event.
