April showers bring May walkers!

Our gardens and lawns are pretty happy with all the rain we’ve been getting. While you’re keeping up with delayed yardwork, keep in mind this quick recap of May events and news:

  1. Worker’s Walk on May 2nd for the May 9th walk at Standing Bear Lake. Arrive by 8:45 a.m. to handle paperwork and walk with the group at 9 a.m. Use the entrance at 138th and Fort Streets (Omaha) to find the picnic shelter near the boat ramp, where we will be meeting.
  2. Regular walk on May 9th, starting times from 8 to 11 a.m., complete the walk by 2 p.m., same starting point as above. The 5K and 10K walks will go around the lake and into the surrounding neighborhoods.
  3. The Grand Island Farewell Walk will be held at 2 p.m. on Sunday, May 17th, during the last weekend that the Skagway Food Store (and Start Point) will be open for business. Make plans to carpool and to walk this great route one last time, and to say thank you to Jim and Martha McGahan for over 20 years’ dedication to walking in Grand Island and surround areas. More info on our Calendar of Events.
  4. Finally, our NWFT May-June 2015 Newsletter is attached so you can see what we’ll be doing in the summer months.
