-- Heritage Walks Program 2009 --
Celebrating our heritage through
hiking & walking, biking, & canoeing.
Our eighth annual Heritage Walks Programwill be held on two
weekends this Fall:
September 19-20 and October 3-4, 2009.
Come join us on short walks as well as longer hikes,
walking tours of towns and historical buildings, nature
and birding walks, tours of industrial site ruins,
and, a canoe/kayak trip on the river. Historians,
naturalists, and environmentalists will help participants explore:
- The Housatonic River
- The history of the villages and towns in the region as
expressed in archaeological and industrial sites,
architecture, bridges, and monuments, - Both prominent and unsung geological, ornithological
and horticultural resources, and - Splendid autumn foliage vistas.
