A GREAT Day FOR WALKING
Sunday the 18 of April proved to be a wonderful day for walking along the North Sydney/ Sydney Mines Harbour area.
A bright sunny day with a cool breeze blowing off the ice in the harbour and the Newfounland ferry in the background made it a picture postcard walk event for the 22 Island Hoppers who participated in this event.
The Event was led by Robin Grant and Isabel ensured we kept on the right trail through the community of Sydney Mines.
Alan Paruch and his son Jonathan joined us for this event and are looking forward to joining us for our next event and we are pleased to welcome them to to our club and Volkssporting.
Our next Event is Sunday 2nd of May at 2:00pm in Big Pond, this is a 10 Km walk led by Elsie Buck and the sweep for the event will be Joe MacKinnon, if you have questions about the walk call them at 562-3117.
Take Hwy 4 to Big Pond, turn left at Glengarry Road approx. 1Km to "Rear Big Pond Road" and East Bay Hills.
