Mix of Minds Discussion Group

This group meets monthly to discuss thought-provoking articles from any source. Articles and questions are chosen by group members on a rotating basis.

Walking Groups

The AWN Ramblers is a group for energetic, active over-50's who walk in nearby forest preserves.

Other Walking Groups

We'd welcome your help in organizing a walking group with your own ideal pace and setting - perhaps strolling, exploring and/or smelling the roses.
