Hershey’s Mill Sports Committee New Walking Group Forming
“Walk with Friends”

Mondays & Thursdays 4pm
Beginning Monday, June 2 at 4 PM
Tennis Court Parking Lot. (weather permitting)
******
If you like to walk and need a partner, or if you just want to get motivated to get out and move, Hershey’s Mill Sports is starting a walking group.  We plan to meet at the parking lot near the tennis courts and walk on the path around the lagoon.  The path is a half mile with plenty of benches and very flat.

When we see the interest and number of walkers, we may add more paths around the Mill which may be a bit more challenging (hilly), but the flat terrain will always be available.
If you have wanted to get out and walk and don’t have anyone to motivate you, please join us.  Or if you are a regular walker but want companionship, please come along.

No need to sign up – just show up!

Please wear appropriate walking shoes and bring water
