Other Upcoming Events

The legendary Walk 'n Mass Soup Walk is on Saturday, March 28th
Plan on joining us in Holliston, MA for Fun, Fellowship, and FOOD!
    -- To help ensure everyone gets back to the start point by noon the start times are staggered, so
    10K walkers should start between 9:00 and 10:00 a.m. and 5K walkers should start between
    10:15 and 11:00 a.m.
    -- The soup will be on at noon. You are invited to join fellow walkers for this social gathering
    that kicks off the Walk ’n Mass walking season.
    -- If you would like to contribute an appetizer, soup, bread, or dessert (nothing with nuts as our
    host location is a nut-free facility), please notify Mary Frink at mfwalks2010@verizon.net or
    617-387-1577 to indicate what you are planning to bring.
    -- Note that it is not necessary to come with anything other than your smiling face, an appetite,
    and perhaps your favorite soup bowl and spoon. Beverages and paper goods will be provided.
