GREATER MONCTON INFORMAL WALKING GROUP

This group started in October 2005.

Who? Everyone is welcome.
When? Every Tuesday and Thursday at 8:30 a.m.
We only cancel if schools are closed because of weather.
Where? We plan to choose various trails in the Greater Moncton area
Why? Walking in the fresh air is healthy and pleasant.
To walk with a few others is a bonus.
Participants walk at their own rate and at their own risk.
Usually our walks last about 45 - 60 minutes, but that's flexible.
We often go to the nearest Tim's for coffee afterwards, an added incentive!
If you live in the Greater Moncton area, consider joining us!
This has become a good page for photos taken during our walks in the Greater Moncton area
If you want to know where we are walking, just phone 386-2187 or e-mail us at wbharrig@nb.sympatico.ca
