Let's Get Moving

Let's Get Moving Let's Get Moving is a program of the ONIE Project. Here to promote free, family-friendly physical activity for all Oklahomans! Reno Midwest City, OK 73110.

Find resources at onieproject.org 🏃‍♀️ Who: The ONIE Project hosts a series of FREE family fun walk/runs annually in October. These events feature a variety of family-friendly activities, including a wellness expo before the 5K walk/run. Where: 5k certified course through Regional Park – 8700 E. We will begin off SE 15th Street, the south side of the park, between Midwest Blvd. & Douglas Blvd. Why

: Midwest City was chosen as the community for this health initiative for a variety of reasons. First, Regional Park is one of the safest accessible parks in the area, offering a variety of family-focused fun. Second, Midwest City is known to be a family-oriented community. The wellness expo will also introduce families to the many health resources Midwest City and the metro area offer. How: The ONIE project is a non-profit organization funded by the USDA through the Oklahoma Department of Human Services. We plan for 1,000 participants at each event. What: Support is needed for participant recruitment, volunteer recruitment, training team hosts, water station sponsors, post-run snack sponsors, entertainment, volunteer and participant T-shirt sponsors, vendors for the wellness expo, area trail map printing sponsors, basket giveaways, and fun items for participant goody bags.

🚨 Share Your Story to Help ONIE Continue Its Work! 🚨

ONIE needs your help! Recent federal actions, “H.R.1 – the Big Beautiful Bill Act” have eliminated ONIE’s primary source of funding. If you’ve been part of ONIE—as a volunteer, community partner, or program participant (Let's Get Moving, Choose Homemade / Elige Casero, Tasty Text, OK Farmers Markets)—we want to hear from you!

💬 Share your story to help us find new funding & keep these programs alive for Oklahomans. Your voice matters! Submit your story: tinyurl.com/ONIE-testimonial - we appreciate your support!

Important Update from ONIE Project❗

The federal budget reconciliation bill (H.R. 1, or the “Big Beautiful Bill Act”) has eliminated the Nutrition Education and Obesity Prevention Grant starting October 1st, 2025. SNAP-Ed funded the majority of ONIE Project’s initiatives, including Let’s Get Moving.

As a result of this federal action, we will not have the resources to host this year’s Let’s Get Midwest City Moving event and related programming. We know this is disappointing news – Let’s Get Moving has been part of the Midwest City community since 2013, and we’re so proud of the energy and community you’ve helped build. We’re working hard to find opportunities to help us bring this event back in the future.

Until then, thank you for every step, stretch, and smile you’ve shared with us. Family-friendly physical activity resources will remain available on the ONIE Project website, onieproject.org 🏃‍♂️
Keep moving, Midwest City!
