Dog Walking Group
Leader: Shelley Mogil

May Dog Walking dates:

Wednesday, May 7, 2008 9:00 am
Thoreau Woods, Sudbury.  Come join on a leash-free walk along one of my favorite trails and wander through the back woods of Walden Pond.  Less than 2/10ths of a mile south of Route 2 on Sudbury Road you will see a large yellow house set back behind a stone wall on the left side of the street (approx 647 Sudbury Road).  Turn into the driveway, (no you are not going into someone's garage) and go to the end to the head of the trail.  Park and meet on the grassy patch before the trail head.

Monday, May 12, 2008 1:30 pm
Punkatasset Conservation Land, Concord Punkatasset Conservation Land, along with connecting Estabrook Woods, consists of approximately 800 acres of ponds, pastures and paths.  Hutchins Pond, one of the best for our pups, is at the beginning of the trail.  If your dog is a swimmer make sure you carry towels in your car.  The trail head is at the end of the driveway for house 873 Monument Street.  Park in one of the small turnouts there and then walk down the driveway to the trail head.  We will meet at the post for the trail head.

Tuesday, May 20, 2008  9:00 am
Bruce Freeman Rail Trail,
Concord.  At the intersection of Old Marlboro Road and Williams Road you will see a parking area marked as the Old Rifle Range.  Park there and then we will walk across the street and down the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail.

Wednesday, May 28, 2008  9:00 am
White Pond Reservation, Concord.  Take Route 2 to Emerson Hospital, make a left and then a quick right onto Old Marlboro Road.  Continue straight past the Middle School and DON'T make the right turn when Old Marlboro turns but rather stay straight and you are now on Old Pickard Road.  Look on the left for Powder Mill Road and take a left onto the road until you get to Plainfield Road.  Make a right turn onto Plainfield to the end and take a right onto Dover Street past Easton Street , then turn left at the sign for Shore Drive to a small gravel lot on the right at the bottom of the hill.  Continue on foot straight up the hill, past the green signs saying 'no vehicles beyond this point'. 

RSVP: Please contact Shelley Mogil to join this group. Email: Shelley Mogil. If you cannot make it to one of these walks but would like to be on the email list, please email Shelley.  In case of bad weather, Shelley will send out an email cancellation the morning of the walk.
