Walking Adventures
We will meet once or twice a month starting at the library where we will walk to our destination and meet up with a special tour guide who will lead the main part of the tour. The walks are moderate intensity, as there will be some hills and we may cover up to five miles, so dress appropriately for the weather, bring water, and be prepared to be out for at least 2 hours.
