Explore the many trails in the Duluth area. Participants determine the pace of walking. Some set out on a brisk walk; others take their time. All are welcome. The trails and walkways we choose will be dictated by what nature allows us in the spring. Easy hikes on paved or smooth paths will be included. There will be options for shorter distances for most hikes. LIMIT 25

Dancing is an excellent activity for both the body and the brain. Physical activity protects the brain, learning lets it grow, socialization helps it thrive, and, most of all, it is fun. Dance to music from many countries. All are welcome to join, and no partners are needed.

We are, "in just spring, when the world is mud-luscious and puddle-wonderful..." (e. e. cummings). We will do our best to enjoy April and May mud and puddles with walks and maybe hikes. Spring weather is unpredictable, but the plan is that participants will walk along the lake and the bay and then head inland and upland as the ground dries. We will stop along the trails to enjoy signs of spring in the Northland. LIMIT 25
