Meet Me in Marana Update
steve outridge June 2, 2013Commencing Wednesday June 5, 2013, Meet Me in Marana will have a new home at Wade McLean Park, which is situated immediately east of Coyote Trails Elementary School, 8000 N. Silverbell Road. It’s less than a mile away from our previous location at Crossroads Park. To reach the new location, head north on Silverbell from Cortaro Road for about ½-mile, then turn right into the Coyote Trails parking lot. From the parking lot it’s a short walk along the multi-use path to the park. All the usual MMiM features still apply: free raffle, restaurant discounts, free t-shirt after 8 visits. Everyone is welcome: walkers, joggers, runners, children, dogs. The walking/running routes are predominantly along existing river paths and therefore traffic free. Come and join us: it’s your free Wednesday workout. .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) us with any questions.
