Join us for the first Girls About Stow event, a bottomless brunch at Turtle Bay, Walthamstow, on Sunday 19 April at 3pm. I’ve booked for 12 people, so it’s a lovely chance to meet, have a drink, and get to know each other properly in a fun, relaxed setting. The brunch includes 90 minutes of unlimited cocktails, prosecco, draft beers and alcohol-free cocktails, plus a brunch dish, so it should be a really nice afternoon out. Looking forward to getting the first meetup in the diary and seeing everyone there. Please only sign on to the event if you can definitely make it, as I’ve had to put card details down to secure the booking!

Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in! We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind. If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward.

Let’s walk the gardens and enjoy what has spring has on display.

Hike approx 4.0 miles at approx. 18 minute mile pace. Meet in front of the Nature Center.
