Thank you to all the walkers who joined us for our first ESCV sponsored Walkway Over the Hudson walk on Wednesday, April 29. It was a perfect day for a walk—great weather and even better company, after the walk we gathered at the Gateway Diner for a delicious lunch before heading back home.  

Don't miss the party! Only twelve days left to go before A Revolutionary Event Walking Weekend in Lake George, NY, May 16-20,  highlighting Revolutionary War sites, walks and biking in Johnstown, Crown Point, Ticonderoga, Schuylerville, Lake George, and Round Lake. Walkers coming from 21 states. You don’t want to miss the great walks and the fun social activities. Come for one or all events.
