wisnet.com welcomes Get Moving Washington County

Getmovingwashingtoncounty.com has just been launched and is ready to view! The purpose of the site is to develop a culture of healthy and active lifestyles for all ages and abilities. To do this Washington County, of Southeastern Wisconsin, has added everything, and we mean everything, that you can do to stay physically fit. Interested in horseshoes, geocaching, golfing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, or a farmers market? You bet, Get Moving Washington County has it!

Features of the site include links to partner organizations and contributors to the “Get Moving” initiative, as well as volunteer and contact forms. In addition, there is a drop-down list of communities within the county where site visitors can find swimming pools, parks, and running and biking trails among other activities.

The site is clean, easy to navigate, and has a lot of whitespace to let visitors eyes rest. The colors of the website work in symphony with the logo for easy recognition of the Get Moving Washington County brand.

The design of this site is meant to represent a light, airy feeling — the way you feel when you’re outside enjoying a breath of fresh air, whether it’s walking in a park or playing an aggressive game of soccer.

One of the more interesting aspects of the site is the interactive geographical map created with ESRI Arcview GIS software, which provides accurate detail when planning running, walking, and hiking routes. Points of Interest, lakes, and parks can easily be found and a visitor can measure distance to various locations throughout the county map. The map can be printed for visitors to take with them on their travels through Washington County’s many scenic paths!
