CT Forest & Park Walk in Farmington Oct. 30

Deer, and turkeys, and chipmunks—oh my! Whooo-oo knows what sights and sounds we'll discover in the forest this Halloween weekend on Sunday, October 30 from 9:30 – 11:00 a.m. on the Nancy Conklin Trail in Farmington. Families can enjoy this easy 1- to 2-mile (depending on the group) walk along a flat trail that is great for little legs.  Bring your favorite Halloween prop that it is light enough to carry and will not inhibit walking.

We will still walk in light rain. Heavy rain or thunderstorms will cancel. Advanced registration is welcome but not required; contact CFPA at (860) 346-TREE or info@ctwoodlands.org. We look forward to seeing you and your family on the trail!   For directions, more details, and other rambles, visit www.walkct.org and click on Family Rambles.

To prepare for a safe and enjoyable time:
1. Be ready to begin the Ramble at the scheduled start time;

2. Bring water, snack, and your excitement;

3. Leave pets at home or other safe place;

4. Wear sturdy shoes; and

5. Kids, please remember to bring your parents or caregivers.

WalkCT Family Rambles is a program of the Connecticut Forest & Park Association, designed to bring families, fun, and the outdoors together. Led by trained WalkCT Family Guides, these engaging outings are offered at trails around the state on the last weekend of every month. Because these adventures are geared specifically for families, kids and their caregivers can delight in this outdoor quest for fun together. Babies in secured backpacks are welcome.
