Itinerary:

Let's celebrate health and wellness at Roswell Park!  The AOC will be setting up a booth at the fabulous Health and Wellness Expo that will be held right in the park where we start and end our Boardwalk trek.  We'll be starting our walk before the Expo begins, so we should have ample parking . . .  and once we return, you can visit all the exhibitions and enjoy the entertainment connected with the event.  Join us just for the walk, or help out at our AOC booth, or spend some time at all the Health and Wellness booths.  There will be lots of giveaways and plenty of food available!  

Be sure to stop by the AOC booth for some free treats and friendly welcomes!

The beautiful new boardwalk we will be walking on extends from the entrance at the Chattahoochee Nature Center on Willeo Rd. to Azalea Park on Azalea Dr. - - a distance of .7 miles.  We'll start the hike at the bathrooms at Roswell Park on Riverside Rd. and hike the 1.5 mile path to the boardwalk.  Then, you're in for a real treat, walking on the newly constructed wooden boardwalk that takes a winding route actoss the wetland, often passing near the Chattahoochee River for some scenic views of the waterway.  This is an out and back hike with an opportunity for a bathroom break at about the halfway point.

Dogs are permitted on this event, but no more than 3 dogs.  If you see that three dogs are already registered, please do not plan to bring yours.  Of course, all dogs must be kept on leash for the entire event.
