Walking Group
Each walking club offers walking from October through April, and the Drayton and Palmerston clubs continue throughout the summer months as well, walking on the ice surface at the arena.
If you are an active walker during the summer months but find it difficult to maintain this throughout the year, then our walking groups may be just the answer. It's a great place to meet new people, and keep active at the same time! If you are just starting a walking program, this is a great way to get on your way to walking to better health! Benefits of walking include:
