A month of adventures
Put on your explorer’s hat and head to New England’s “Last Green Valley” for the 19th annual “Walktober ’09,” a series of 106 events, walks, and excursions. The daily programs throughout October provide enticing ways to learn about history and nature in the Quinebaug and Shetucket Rivers Valley National Heritage Corridor stretching from northeastern Connecticut into south-central Massachusetts. Under the auspices of The Last Green Valley, Inc., there’s something for all ages and abilities, among them birding walks, forest hikes, river sightseeing, children’s programs, and talks at historic sites in and around 35 towns.
