August Meeting Results.
Thank you to all who showed up at this month’s meeting. We had a marvelous turnout and covered a lot of things.
We have about 22 paid members now!
Soon we will have a Membership discount set up at Whirlaway Sports, similar to the members discount at Buchikas.
We have the September One Hour CLEAN UP scheduled for
Saturday Sept 11th at 8:00AM
LOCATION: under the Oakland ave bridge.
MEETUP: is on Union St at the old Laidlaw property. Park alongside the train tracks as this is still RR property.
We have TWO end-to-end walks scheduled on two consecutive Sunday mornings.
Sunday, August 15th at 8:00am
and
Sunday, August 22nd at 8:00am.
MEETUP: the back of the parking lot at IHOP on Rt 28.
we aren’t sure how long this 2.4 miles will take us.
Average adult walking speed on level surfaces is about 3 miles per hour.
This is not a level surface…yet. The Methuen rail bed is 2.4 miles long.
If anyone who doesn’t want to walk BOTH ways, down to the Lawrence Line and back.
let us know in advance and we can arrange for a ride back from the Granite Ave apt parking lot. Or you can park at Granite ave and we will drive you to IHOP.
We will be scheduling another Windham Rail Trail Group Ride on a weekend in Late September early October.
Our next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, September 14th at 7:00PM at the Nevins Library. Please come and bring a friend!
Thank you all for your support.
