SUNDAY hIKEs
Walk for the Fun – or Just for the Health – of It!
Sunday hikes are continuing as long as we have interest. However, we need leaders for each week. For all winter hikes, consider the weather conditions for proper footwear.
Jan. 3 – Nashotah Park: Meet at Hwy 16 and C Park & Ride at 1:30 pm.
Hike 1:45-3:45 pm.
Jan. 10 – Minooka Park: Meet at the park’s parking lot on Sunset Drive in Waukesha, just west of Hwy Y (Racine Ave.) at 1:30 pm.
Hike 1:45-3:45 pm. Leader is Jean Dueling, (414) 321-0258.
Jan. 17 – Whitnall Park: 5879 S 92nd St. (south of Forest Home) in Hales Corners. Meet at the golf course parking lot along 92nd Street at 1:30 pm.
Hike 1:45-3:45 pm.
Jan. 24 – Menomonee Park: Hwy Y entrance (on Lannon Rd. about ½ mile north of Good Hope, at the Lannon Village Park parking lot on the east side of the road). Meet at 1:30 pm.
Hike 1:45-3:45 pm.
Jan. 31 – Lapham Peak State Park: Park entrance is on Hwy C in Delafield, just south of I-94. Drive past the ranger’s office and take a right at the first turn to the parking lot. Meet at 1:30 pm.
Hike 1:45-3:45 pm.
Wednesday short walks will continue weekly at 1 p.m.
We are looking for a volunteer each week to give a location and lead. There has been great interest in the walks, and they are going smoothly. We are choosing parks that have paved walkways and relatively flat terrain for a one-hour walk.
A few guidelines for cancellations: a) If there’s steady rain; b) if the temperature is below 25 degrees; c) snowy conditions would be up to the discretion of the leader. A walk in light, fluffy snow might be delightful, but a heavy, wet snow could be unsafe on the roads and probably canceled.
If you would like to volunteer, contact Mary Beth a week or two before your suggested date. Call (262) 443-7291.
