Beverly Shores Garden & Art Walk

note: we will meet outside in front of the Administration Building at 9:45, and depart on foot at 10:00. if you don't see us in front of the Administration Building, check outside the Depot.

if you arrive late, and we are already gone, continue on the route yourself, from the map you receive when you sign in, and you will probably run into us. to identify me if we haven't met, i will be wearing a faded blue hat that says "GREECE" on it. you may also call me at 773-415-0428

dear friends--

we invite you to an eclectic day of gardens, art, walking, and the fellowship of friendly, interesting folks.

together we will visit the Beverly Shores Residents Association 2026 Garden and Art Walk. we first took this walk in 2015 when my wife, Hilary's garden was one of the featured stops, and then again in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, 2024, and 2025.

more details will follow as they become available

we will visit the gardens and art displays on foot, for a hike of about 2-4 miles linking the locations. i will do at least part of the tour in our beautiful golf cart, Bluesheen. i can take up to 3 additional people on each leg. travel at your own risk, no seat belts--this is a golf cart.

i want to emphasize that signing up on my meetup site does not get you admission to the Garden Walk. you must sign up with the Garden Walk organizers too, at the website below to pre-order tickets, or else at the door.

be sure to check the weather just before the hike so you can be prepared with whatever gear is necessary http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/Beverly+Shores+IN+46301 . bring at least a quart of water (two is better), and a snack you can eat on our rest stop. bring sunscreen, appropriate footwear, and a hat with a brim. bring a mask in case we may need one.

i have not made any plans for an apres lunch event, but we will be parked right across the street from The Goblin and the Grocer http://www.goblinandthegrocer.com/ , if anyone wanted to gather there after the garden walk.

We hope to see you for a pleasant day of gardens and art,

Rick
