Weekly Newhallville Walking Group.

This is a standing community event every Saturday. 

Please see message from Kimberly Langin:

We'd like to invite you to join us in a new walking group on Saturday.  Walking throughout your neighborhood provides many opportunities that you would not have by staying indoors! If we can get a large enough group together, hopefully it will encourage others to join us for future walks.

Through walking, we'll get to meet more of our neighbors which will help strengthen the community and bring more voices together to talk about neighborhood concerns. Drivers will become more aware of pedestrians, leading them to be more cautious and attentive when driving through highly populated areas.

Also, by being outside regularly, we'll discourage crime, such as graffiti and other vandalism, because there will be more "eyes on the street" to notice these things and prevent them from happening!

And, as always, it's good exercise!

We hope that you'll join us Saturday's at 1pm.  The walk will start on Bassett Street in front of the Lincoln Bassett School.

We encourage you to spread the word to others!
