"WALK JUST FOR THE HEALTH OF IT"
Our Mission: To promote healthy lifestyles for all ages by providing a variety of interesting walking events in the Cheshire area with opportunities for education, socialization and exploration. Our Goal: To provide venues for all trekkers to connect and socialize at our walking events, while group leaders present interesting topics during walks. Walks are scheduled on the first Saturday and third Wednesday of each month. In case of inclement weather, the Parks & Recreation Department will announce the cancellation no sooner than 24 hours in advance, but usually a few hours before the walk. In case of a cancellation due to inclement weather, whenever possible, the makeup will be held at the same time, day of the week and location the following week. Occasionally, makeups will not be possible. Preregister to attend each walk and receive updates on specific meeting location and any changes to the schedule via email. Participants should dress for the day's weather, wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water. Sunscreen and bug spray are suggested. If you have binoculars, you may want to bring them too!
