Join Laura Stanton, OSU Extension Educator, and other guests, for a series of relaxing strolls around multiple parks in Warren County. These will be slow and peaceful walks, perfect for Monday mornings. These walks are a terrific opportunity to soak up Vitamin N (Nature) and meet new friends. Both of which are beneficial to your overall health and wellbeing. We’ll meet in the park’s parking lot and start walking by 9:10 AM. You can leave the walks when you want, and we’ll plan to finish each walk by 11:00 AM.

We received word from one of our regular Wellness Walkers that there is currently a tree down on the trail at Halls Creek. Laura walked the trail on Wednesday (8/14) and saw the tree, but she believes that our walkers can overcome the obstacle! Relive your childhood and either climb over the tree using a nearby stump OR sit on your bottom and throw your legs over. We promise, we will get you over the tree! We haven't left anyone behind yet....
