Neighborhood Walk (Jenkintown)
Details
Enjoy a nice walk around the neighborhood while getting to know the many places we have and how local groups are working to improve them. Each walk is a loop that takes 30-60 minutes at a modest pace and includes a place to get a treat. We will meet as a group, walk, observe the local urbanism, and discuss what we see.
Meet at Jenkintown Town Square, the corner of Greenwood and Leedom. 703 Greenwood Ave, Jenkintown, PA 19046. Parking (paid) is available in the lot. SEPTA access via 55 bus, or walking from Jenkintown-Wyncote or Noble station.
Route: Leedom to West (optional: stop in at White Horse Coffee House) to 611 to Hillside to Walnut to Greenwood to Town Square. Total distance 1.1 miles, includes hills, "25 minutes"

We walk in all weather. The event may be cancelled or postponed if the weather is dangerous (icy, severe storms, heat warning, etc.) but otherwise we walk rain or shine. Weather is part of being a pedestrian! Please dress appropriately for the weather. We may be out in the sun or otherwise exposed to puddles, wind, etc.
