Sunday, April 26 — Thank you to POC Teresa for guiding us on the Year-Round Schenectady walk through the beautiful Union College campus (chartered in 1795, making it one of the oldest colleges in the U.S.), across the historic Whipple Truss Bridge, and through the GE Realty Plot a historic residential neighborhood Established around 1900, it features roughly 150 architecturally distinct homes designed for GE engineers and executives, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.   

On Wednesday April 29 join POC Louise for a scenic walk on the Walkway Over the Hudson, the world’s longest elevated pedestrian bridge. Choose a 5K out-and-back across the bridge or a 10K route extending into downtown Poughkeepsie with river views and historic landmarks.
