The Strollers is a walking group for those who would rather stroll than power walk, amble rather than run. Initiated just a few months ago, the Strollers has a core group of participants from all ages and walks of life.
On average, six people have shown up every Thursday afternoon for a leisurely one-km. walk along the track bed in Sharbot Lake. Participants’ comments include, "It's more fun when I walk with others" and "Afterwards I feel so energetic".
The Strollers will meet every Thursday afternoon at 12:30 p.m. in front of the Sharbot Lake Medical Centre. For those who are wary of walking in winter, there are a variety of traction aids available that fit on boots and using an old ski pole really helps with stability. For more information, contact Mike Procter at 613-279-3151 or simply show up at the Medical Centre.
