Fall Walks 2003

Fall Walks 2003

September 25 ~ Bell Island ~ This once-casual beach development is rapidly gentrifying. Local Resident Nahun Hacohen sometimes joins us to offer his insights into this neighborhood. Wonderful views of Long Island Sound.
	October 2 ~ Southport ~ See a historic harbor neighborhood on foot, enjoying its 19^th century houses and well-cultivated gardens. A favorite with all past walk groups.
	October 9 ~ Sherwood Island ~ We explore this Connecticut State Park with its beaches, marshes, vistas and nature paths, and also visit the new September 11 Memorial, shown below.

October 16 ~ Silvermine ~ We enjoy this Norwalk-Wilton-New Canaan neighborhood as we stroll along the Silvermine River, observing waterfalls, ducks, and fall colors. If time permits, we’ll also make a stop at the Silvermine Gallery.
October 23 ~ Weir Farm ~ Connecticut’s only National Park, Weir Farm was the country home of impressionist painter J. Alden Weir and the site of many of his paintings. We do a country ramble through fields and orchards.

We meet in the Atrium of the East Campus building and arrange
transportation from there.

Walks are on pavement or on nature paths. Wear comfortable shoes.

The walk schedule is subject to change due to weather and other circumstances beyond our control.

Rain at 9:00 AM automatically cancels the scheduled walk. In case of doubt, call the Facilitator, Julius Gluck, at 847-8217.
