Wish you knew some new places to get outdoors with your family and friends? Come learn where you can find easy walking trails, great railtrails, beautiful views of the Blackstone River and short walks to sweeping vistas along the Upper Charles, and the Neponset River watersheds, places that are “right around the corner” from where you live. Local author and Bellingham resident Marjorie Turner Hollman will present a slideshow of photos taken along paths included in the 2nd edition of her book, “Easy Walks in Massachusetts,” a walking trail guide to 50+ trails in 16 contiguous area towns in south central MA. She will also share slides from walks included in “More Easy Walks” which detail great places to enjoy the outdoors in an additional 15 contiguous towns closer towards Boston.
