5-mile urban walk then coffee

Let’s meet in front of the Brooks Family YMCA at 9 AM. We will walk along the sidewalk by the tennis courts, then into McIntire Park, cross the John Warner Parkway and enter the paved John Warner Parkway Trail. We’ll turn around when the trail intersects with Rio Road and head back to the Y.

After our walk, join me at the non-profit Kindness Café inside the YMCA. If you have never visited a Kindness Café, you are in for a treat. Take a few minutes to read about it in this link. https://www.kindnesscafecville.com/ The folks at the café cannot reserve seats but we can move the outside tables around for those who want to sit in the sun.

A few notes:

• Please park in the back row of the YMCA parking lot near the tennis courts.
• Well behaved leashed dogs are welcome.
• The trail is fully accessible and can accommodate strollers and wheelchairs.
• There are bathrooms in the building to the right of the entrance of the Y if you need to make a pit stop before or after we head out.
• The weather looks great, but I will cancel if it’s rainy.
