Walkabouts and Friends! Let’s go for a walk at the Big Spring State Park!
Join us on Saturday, September 11th for a walk at Big Spring State Park (the mountain in Big Spring).
We will meet up at 7:00 a.m., (behind the Jumburrito at the Midland Mall for those interested in carpooling or driving in a caravan to the Big Spring State Park. Or, if you prefer to meet us at the park, we will meet the group around 8:00 a.m., at the upper level parking lot at the park. This walk is AVA Event ID#: 117418 – 2021/#Y0471 – 10km/5km
Please bring water, the $3 walk fee (free for guests and new members), and your Distance/ Events booklets.
If you own a Walkabout t-shirt, that would be appropriate. Also, the colors of red/white/blue in honor of Patriot Day, would be great.
Big Spring State Park Info: The State Park is contained within the city limits of Big Spring. The walk itself is probably fine for most everyone in our group, but there is a hill which gets you up high enough to overlook the fine city of Big Spring! The trail is not, however, suitable for wheelchairs, strollers, etc.. We will be walking on asphalt roads, dirt and gravel paths. There are no entrance fees. Restrooms are available in the park.
Due to a holiday conflict, we will be having our September meeting on Wednesday, September 1st, at 6:00 pm. at Murray’s. The Labor Day holiday conflicts with our usual Monday meeting, and we apologize if this change makes things difficult, but we sure hope you can attend.
When: Monday, September 1st
Time: 6:00 p.m.
Where: Murray’s Restaurant & Deli – 3211 Wadley – (in the meeting room)
Saturday, August 7th, we will have our trek through the Midland Park Mall. The Mall doesn’t open as early in the mornings, so let’s meet at the Food Court at 9:00 a.m. We can sleep in and still walk in air-conditioned comfort!
Do as many or as few laps as you please. Then maybe we will go somewhere to eat brunch/lunch.
Please bring your $3.00 and record booklets and wear a Walkabout t-shirt if you can.
