Itinerary:

Well, Shirley tried the rollerblading and she liked it! She's slow so there will be a slow group, but if you are more experienced, there may be a faster group, too. At any rate, the blading will be easy level for beginners and hand-holding may be available if you need it. We will skate the trail beside River Valley Road, which is well paved and nice and flat (not ready for hills yet, no sir). Everyone is welcome to go at his or her own pace - but remember... SAFETY FIRST. Be alert and courteous - skate single-file and avoid other trail users.

- Roller blades
- Helmet (no helmet means you will not be able to participate in this event)
