Between-The-Pulse, a socially engaged project, connects health and wellness to the arts. A total of four creative stations constructed between the Fit-Trail workout stations along the Walking Nature Trail in Estill. Each of the four creative stations provided instructions along with an outline of health and wellness benefits. The titles are: Creative Moves, Visual Stimuli, One-On-One, and Sing-A-Tune! Two of the creative stations encourage participants to upload their dance and singling talents to Twitter at: #BetweenThePulse or the Facebook group page: Between-The-Pulse. Once a month, the City of Estill chooses the best upload and whomever wins is awarded a gift certificate from a local business.

Between-The-Pulse was support by the USDA Office of Rural Development; The Gaylord and Dorothy Donnelley Foundation through a Community Arts Development partnership with The Art of Community: Rural SC; Maven Audrey Hopkins-WIlliams; South Carolina Arts Commission; Community members such as: City of Estill Parks and Recreation; City of Estill Police Department; Town Council Members: Tammy Solomon, Charles Savino, Dwanda Bolden, Joe  Hadwin Jr., and Mayor Corrin F.
