WA lKERS ARE WElC oME

With the twice monthly Summer walks coming to an end in early September, we look forward to our Annual Walking Festival. This year it runs from Friday, 29th September until Sunday, 1st October.

As in previous years, on the Friday, we again team up with the Keynsham & Saltford Local History Society, for a short walk around the town centre, detailing its history. The walk starts at St John’s Church at 6.00pm, and takes about 90 minutes. This has always been popular in the past.

The first of the two Saturday walks starts at the Memorial Park gates at 10:00am, and is a longer walk of 5 miles heading towards Bitton, returning along the River Avon.

The second is another short walk (two miles) starting at 1:00pm at the Memorial Park gates. We shall head towards Chewton Keynsham, along the River Chew, heading back to Keynsham on the other side.

The last walk of the Festival on the Sunday, we shall once again team up with the BBC Children in Need Countryfile Ramble. We shall meet, again, at the Memorial Park gates at 10:00am for a 5 mile walk towards Hanham, stopping for a refreshment, heading back by Hanham Court and Woods. Donations for this worthy cause can be made at the start in an envelope please.

All walks are free, and children and dogs under control are welcome.
