We will meet just inside the first Entrance of Holmes Lake as you are traveling south on 70<sup>th</sup> street. It will be the first driveway after 70<sup>th</sup> and Normal heading south. Shortly after the driveway there is a large tree with two picnic tables under it on the left side.

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. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>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 (11<sup>th</sup> 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. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>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. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>President Richey and Kimberly have both sent out emails with additional information on the walk.
