The Woodland Ramble continues to grow with the addition of a timed Trail Race presented in cooperation with Kelley’s Pace. Representatives from Topo, Altra, and Saucony will attend with demo trail shoes for anyone to try.

All Ramble and Race participants who register before May 9 will receive this year’s Ramble t-shirt.

Native plant expert Jim Natale will lead a limited-space guided walk to tour and discuss the native and invasive species along the route.

As always, leashed, well-behaved dogs are welcome to Ramble. Please bring your own clean-up bags.
