Community Walks * Jan 18th, 23rd
Brrrr, it's January... Looking for ways to get out of the house for some socializing and exercise? Wishing for more in-person connection? UUAA has been scheduling walks, strolls, hikes around Ann Arbor and surrounds. To make sure we are all staying safe, groups are limited to a maximum of seven participants. Masks are required. The groups are small enough to spread out on the trail and still be able to chat.
