27 walkers enjoyed the opportunity to walk for the health and fun of it on January 1, 2020. Aside from a breeze, the 40+ degree temperatures made for a great opportunity to get outside and enjoy the fresh air. We are off to a great year of walking and maintaining our health.
Our first traditional event was the Snowshoe on Feb. 1st at the Dumont Trailhead. 50 folks turned out to enjoy fellowship, the trail and Diane's breads.
