Mona Vespa is the President of GO! St. Louis. GO! is a local non-profit organization that encourages individuals and families in the #STL region to adopt a healthy and active lifestyle year round. They accomplish this through community collaborations, school-based programming and the creation of new and fun fitness events:
“Running is my sport, my hobby and my profession! Personally, I can’t imagine a better way to explore your own city than on foot, and the greenways are the perfect way to do that! Every time I run a greenway, I am reminded that our city is incredibly diverse in landscape and character, but is also comprised of neighborhoods and communities who are all working towards a similar goal: to make their part of our city a vibrant and welcoming home. And as a part of my job, what a joy it is to share that with the runners and walkers of our area. I’ve used greenways for several GO! St. Louis race routes, and our Summer Passport program’s entire focus is to introduce more runners to the incredible gem of these paths throughout our city. GO! St. Louis is thankful for GRG’s work and dedication to outdoor recreation in our region!”

(Not to mention instilling a love for books as little readers burn up some energy!)

St. Vincent Greenway at Ruth Porter Mall
We have teamed up with the St. Louis Public Library on a Storybook Walk at Ruth Porter Mall Park on the St. Vincent Greenway. The featured book changes every month. (Fun Fact: The posts were designed and built by Perennial, a local nonprofit, using 342 pounds of reclaimed material.) The February book is Because Claudette by Tracey Baptiste
Maline Greenway at Bella Fontaine County Park
We’ve partnered with St. Louis Black Authors of Children’s Literature on a Storybook Walk in Bella Fontaine County Park on the Maline Greenway. The featured book is Roscoe Goes to School by Dytania Harris. The Storybook Walk is located on the greenway near the baseball fields.
St. Charles County Storybook Walks
The St. Charles City-County Library maintains five Storybook Walks in St. Charles County. Library staff hand-pick a different book each month. Two of the Storybook Walks are on greenways:
Boschert Greenway at Fox Hill Park in St. Charles The February book is The Epic Adventures of Huggie & Stick by Drew Doywalk and David Springer. The Storybook Walk is separate from the main part of Fox Park; it’s near the parking area at the end of Huncker/Quince (Boschert Greenway Hunker Drive Parking), then just down a short paved path.
Dardenne Greenway at St. Charles Community College in Cottleville The February Book is Rhinos Don’t Eat Pancakes by Anna Kemp. The Storybook Walk is on the portion of the Dardenne Greenway that crosses St. Charles Community College in Cottleville.
