[NFBN-Lincoln] Directions to Saturday's Walk for Independence at Holmes Lake

[markmurraycoleman at gmail.com]

Good evening Federationists and Friends,

 

The Lincoln Chapter's Walk for Independence is almost here! Those of you who
participated in last year's walk at Holmes Lake may remember how beautiful
the day was, how well maintained  the walking path was, how nice it feels to
take walks a little closer to nature and a bit further from traffic, or
maybe you just remember the wonderful time spent with your Federation
family. This year we are expecting another beautiful day. We can also expect
another wonderful morning walking for  independence with our Federation
family, but this year we have the joy of raising money for our state
affiliate as well.    

 

For those planning to come by bus, the #40 (Heart Hospital) has a stop at
Holmes Park Road, which is just north of the entrance to the park. The #40
leaves downtown (11th and L) at ten after the hour each hour. The 9:10 bus
should arrive at Holmes Park Road at about 9:30AM. For those of you arriving
by car, I believe parking was plentiful last year. Are goal is to be
gathered by 10AM and begin walking by 10:15AM. There are rumors that another
event in Lincoln on Saturday afternoon might compete for people's attention
on Saturday, so for the benefit of those Federationists that bleed Husker
red we don't want to get started too late.      

 

When you enter the park, there is a path that leads down towards the lake.
About half way between the start of the path and where the path links to
the walking path that goes around the lake, there were a couple of picnic
tables where we gathered before and after the walk last year. If these
tables are available, we will meet there. If not, we will have to make
enough joyous noise for everyone to find each other.     

 

President Richey and Kimberly have both sent out emails with additional
information on the walk. I am pasting the registration information below. I
hope to see you Saturday!
