THANKSGIVING WALK TODAY

 10 a.m.



Count on Yourself Coaching (Risa Olinsky), Maplewood Loves Wellness and FreeWalkers will host a 2.5 hour (approx. time) walk/hike in South Mt Reservation to support M.E.N.D. (Meeting Emergency Needs with Dignity.) The morning will begin with a group walk on the paved road to Washington Rock from the Dog Park. For those who want to walk only, you can easily turn around at this time and return to the starting point. Hikers will continue down the trails for 2 - 2.5 hours. Children physically able to hike the distance are invited with parents. Dogs ON LEASH who LOVE people and other dogs are welcome. Participation in this event is voluntary and at your own risk, your responsibility. If you choose to cut your hike short, please be sure you know how to get back to the starting point on your own. South Mountain reservation maps are available to purchase around town. 
Appropriate clothing, boots and hiking poles are recommended, along with water.
DONATION REQUESTED: We ask that you bring along cans, boxes or plastic jars of non-perishable food to donate to MEND to help us fill the food pantries in the community. Questions? Reach out to Risa Olinsky at 201-618-5582 or risa@risaolinsky.com. In the event of bad weather call 973-761-5758 at 9 AM on Friday, 11/28 for a recording regarding any changes or cancellation.
