Join him for a walk on the Partridge Island trail, a moderate effort but the first part of the trail is quite steep as we climb up the island.

Wear hiking footwear and bring water. If you like to walk with a stick, bring it.

The number of participants is limited so drop by Main & Station as soon as possible to reserve your spot or contact judith at [email protected] or  514-979-3978.

Note that it is about a 5km drive to Partridge Island from Main Street. Please consider carpooling. If you need a lift or can offer one, please let judith know when you register.

For further information about the walk, call Vic at 254-3880  or send him an e-mail at [email protected]
