OLLI Special Events

Winter Wednesday Walks

1:00-2:00pm

Every week beginning January 11th (12 weeks)

Bundle up and enjoy the company of OLLI friends for a 30 minute outdoor walk. Walk at your own pace breathing in the fresh air and experiencing the natural resources in our community. Each weekly walk will begin with an inspirational thought and gentle warm up stretches, followed by a 30 minute guided walk at scheduled destinations, and ending with a brief cool down and wishes for another week of good health and fellowship. Leashed dogs are welcome. The first two week walks will begin in the OLLI parking lot. A schedule of destination walks will be distributed at that time. Dress for the weather as we will be walking rain, shine, and light snow fall. Preregistration is necessary in order that weekly notices can be forward to all walkers. Beth Leconte, Director of OLLI at URI, will lead the walks.

Let’s bring back the spirit of “play” with OLLI friends whereby “everyone wins”! Brainteasers, charades, cards, word scrambles and good ole fashion board games will be part of the line up for Friday winter fun in the OLLI atrium. Remember games such as “Monopoly”, “Scrabble”, “Rumicube”, “Clue”, “Scattergories”, “Cribbage”, “Trivia Pursuit” and even “Checkers”. Share your favorites and let the FUN begin. Interested OLLI members should pre-register for planning purposes. However, drop-ins are always welcome.
