Cramerton’s StoryWalk
is Coming Soon
What is a StoryWalk? I’ve seen signs like these along other trails in other Greenways, however, I was not previously aware that they were apart of what is considered a StoryWalk.

A StoryWalk is an interactive activity that combines reading with physical activity by displaying pages from a children’s book along a trail.

Using pages from a deconstructed children’s book, a story is displayed along trails or walking paths on poster boards, attached to fences, or encased in outdoor frames. Pages are laminated, attached to signs or podium-style boxes and are accompanied by activity prompts and questions encouraging people to walk to find the next page.

StoryWalks are a fun and innovative tool to engage young readers and encourage activities that build early literacy skills like reading, writing, talking, singing, and playing.

The Cramerton StoryWalk is a permanent installation located along the Goat Island Greenway.

It featuring pages from a children’s picture book displayed on posts and combines reading with outdoor activity for families.

The installation of the StoryWalk was made possible through a grant from the Gaston Association of Realtors.

The StoryWalk concept was created by Anne Ferguson of Montpelier, Vermont, and developed in collaboration with the Kellogg-Hubbard Library.

We are in Maggie Valley right now, visiting with family. Tomorrow, we’ll be heading to Charlotte for our flight home. If we leave Maggie Valley early enough, we might be able to visit the Story Walk. What a cool idea! Thanks for sharing this at such an opportune time. >grin<

The StoryWalk is in Goat Island Park and Greenway in Cramerton. Cramerton is about 16-17 minutes southwest of Charlotte International Airport. Let’s me know if you decide to visit the StoryWalk and I can walk down and meet you.

We will leave Maggie Valley about 10 AM, and it will probably be about three hours to Charlotte. I’ll comment on your post here if we decide we have enough time to return our rental car and get to the airport if we stop at Cramerton. Thanks, Deb.
