There’s a special meetup spot and new walking route for our May 2015 Walk-n-Talk! Come join us.
We’ll meet at the Recology Store Highline for a tour and introduction to the great things they’re doing and the “green” eco products they offer, (including items made from old bicycle inner tubes and reassembled new/old bikes among many other things).
From the store, we’ll walk south and east along a new Walk-n-Talk route, along Des Moines Memorial Drive, under 509 and through the Blakely Manor neighborhood. Along the way we’ll see a couple of waterfalls on Miller Creek.
