30 participants and 2 canines came out and walked and rolled on a balmy Saturday morning - June 6th - in the beautiful gem tucked away in the Town of La Plata known as Tilghman Lake Park!

This month’s walk saw 9 new participants and 7 who’d never been to this park before!

We noted the amazing improvements to include the seemingly endless blooming wildflowers with bees 🐝 buzzing around 💐🌻.

Some folks walked 2 miles in 2 loops and others opted for a single loop at 1 mile. Either way it was a walk or roll at your own pace and a good time was had by all.

Did you take any footage of our footsteps 😉? Drop your photos below 👇🏻 we love to see them. The event invitations for the upcoming July and August walks are in the comments ⬇️.
