Bird Creek Park Story Walk Come to Bird Creek Park for the StoryWalk® along the trail across from the playground and splash pad. We ask that you practice ‘social distancing’ and take turns with one family at each book station. Ask questions about what is happening on each page, then move on to the next station until you complete the story. The StoryWalk® is an exercise for both the mind & body. It’s a unique, self-directed activity for people of all ages which encourages participants to read a children’s book in stages while walking along the Bird Creek Park outdoor park trail. The StoryWalk® is a community effort led by the Waushara’s Vision Committee’s Financial Wellness Workgroup, with many partners involved. StoryWalks® were created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, Vermont and were developed in collaboration with the Vermont Bicycle and Pedestrian Coalition and the Kellogg Public Library.
