Winter Walks
McFarland Park, Story County
Thursday, January 2, 2025
This event will meet at 1610 Meadowlane Ave, Ames (the site of the former Carr Pool near the intersection of Carr Drive and Meadowlane Ave).
Enjoy a series of five winter walks as we explore our local public parks. These walks are free and do not require registration. All walks begin at 1:30PM from our meeting area and wrap up by 3:30PM. We end our walks sharing a light snack brought by the hikers. The winter walks are led by Outdoor Alliance of Story County volunteers and are cosponsored by Story County Conservation. Contact info@oasco.org for more information.
The winter walks will wrap up earlier if the winter weather is particularly harsh and be cancelled if SCC closes its facilities due to the weather.
