Get out and Walk!

by Melissa Hawkins

Summer evenings are the perfect time to get out doors and walk. If you are like me, you might be concerned about walking alone for safety reasons. Or, you just might want to have a companion to walk with. The Sacramento Walking Sticks might be just what you need to get you motivated and out of the house.

The Walking Sticks is a group of people who have organized weekly walks in various parts of Sacramento, as well as outings to other cities such as Truckee and Santa Cruz. Walks are free, and membership is very cheap if you choose to become a member.

Tonights walk takes place in the Gold River area at 5:30pm. If you can not make this walk, do not worry as there are many more walks taking place this summer. Check out the Walking Sticks website for more information about their group and events: http://www.sacramentowalkingsticks.org/

In addition, our status as the most ethically diverse city in America also means that we have something for everyone to do. There are numerous ethnic restaurants, tons of museums, and countess festivals in historic Old Sacramento that make the city an excellent place to visit and an even better place to live...
