The group walks from Varka’s to the Carol Street entrance to the bike path to Interstate and back. After the walk, this group goes to the senior center at Finch Park for coffee. The Monday, Wednesday, and Friday Walks meet at 10 a.m.; the Tuesday and Thursday Walks at 9 a.m.; and the Friday “Mom and Me” Walks at 9:15 a.m. The starting point for these walks is the Interstate entrance to the Ramsey bike path (off Addison Street). The groups walk along the bike path to Prospect Street and turn around and return to Interstate. The walks typically take 30 to 45 minutes. The terrain is easy, and there are benches along the way if someone needs to rest. To participate in any of these walks, just show up at the bike path entrance at the appointed time.
