The weather was very pleasant for our group walk of our new Ann Arbor YRE. Pictured are Coletta, Eunice, Tricia, Nancy, Jerry, Alicia, Amy and John, with Stefan up behind. Coletta is a new GLA member. (Chelane was behind the camera). . The 12K option through the Nichols Arboretum went through the blooming peonies. Very fragrant! The window for entering YREs for 2007 is now open until the end of August. If you are setting up a new YRE, please let me know when we can come test walk your route. We have until the end of August for submissions, and we need a map, directions and brochure to submit. I have a route ready for Stockbridge. If you'd like to come test my directions, let's plan it for Saturday, 10 am at the gravel parking area on M-52 / M-106 and Center St., unless you want to carpool to do the Ft. Wayne event. Let me know. Ginny Drumm had this news for the Mid-America Region . . .
I have made a draft program as incentive for folks to walk more in Michigan. I have put up a draft page . From the comments I have received so far, I think we'll charge a small fee up front for the book (maybe $2 or $3?) and then charge for the patch when the book is sent in ($5 for central patch plus year patch, and $1 for year patch alone?) I'm going to get a quote from a local print shop to see how much printing the books would cost. Keep sending any comments you have. Our next group walk will be on our new Plymouth YRE. Hope to see you there! Chelane Previous Newletters
