Netherlands 50-mile Kennedy Walk, Cycling & Kuekenhof

Details

Join me for my 6th Kennedy Marches: Sittard, Holland: The U.S. Bicycling Team's World HQ. In 2013, I addressed the 3,500 walkers at the opening ceremony and have developed a Kennedy March (Mars) alliance with Ad Van der Loo, the march director for 50 years. We will again lodge with local families who also provide meals, vehicle transportation and use of their bicycles for a nominal fee. The march is a one-day event but there is an option to visit the lovely Kuekenhof Flower Gardens and or go cycling. http://www.digplanet.com/wiki/Kennedy_march Here are summaries of my 2013 and 2014 experiences in Sittard: https://goo.gl/4CJj4w http://freewalkers.tumblr.com/post/84377945127/searching-for-the-kennedy-spirit. Kennedy Marches are truly international. I will be announcing an Irish Kennedy March on the Ring of Kerry soon, More details on both marches plus a new one that I have devised and walked in Indiana. There is also a 100 year-old march in Nijmegen, Holland that I will be attending for the 23rd time next summer. It will have 45,000 "Nijmegen Marchers” of 80 nationalities for what is "The Walk of the World." More to come on building a team to walk 30km on four consecutive days together as a group. You may also choose to walk either 40km or 50km per day. "Walk on," Ray
