Nature Walk
A weekly gratefulness walk in the woods. A 40 minute walk followed by 10-20 minutes of simple sharing.
Why? Practice gratitude outdoors.
Practice hearing the birds, seeing the trees, and feeling the sunlight through cold air. It's easy to get caught up in memories from the past and great ideas for the future. Let all that go for an hour, and just enjoy being outside with friends.
What? Silent walking & simple sharing.
Please arrive 5-10 minutes early to settle in, we will set off at 1pm after a brief introduction.
- Quick introduction
- 40 minute walk (with a pause in the middle to have a look-a-bout.)
- 10-20min to optionally answer "In one sentence, share something you noticed that you are grateful for."
When & Where?
Park anywhere and look for the group in front of the visitor center. We'll set off from there.
Drive past Jamestown high school and use parking lot at the trailhead.
We'll meet on DoG street between the Cheese Shop and the DoG Street Pub. Parking available on the street and several nearby public parking lots.
Park in the grass parking lot and we'll walk down together. Our actual event space may change depending on time of day, weather, etc.
