Kanemoto Walk followed by Museum Celebration
City of Longmont Recreation Center, 310 Quail Rd, Longmont, CO 80501, USA, Longmont, CO, USTYPE: Weekly walk | PACE: Moderate | TERRAIN: Paved trail | DISTANCE: Approximately 3–4 miles |
Join us for a Saturday morning walk along the St. Vrain Greenway, followed by the Longmont Museum's Grand Reopening Celebration and lunch at Parkway Food Hall!
We will meet in front of the Longmont Rec Center at 9:00 AM, quickly check out the ribbon cutting, and then head out for walk going west on the St Vrain.
We will do an out and back of 4 miles passing by Kanemoto and some other beautiful spots along the river path.
Afterwards, we'll head over to the Longmont Museum's Grand Reopening Celebration! The museum is celebrating its newly renovated and expanded spaces with a free community event. We'll have a chance to explore the new exhibits, check out the galleries, and participate in the celebration's special activities. It's a great opportunity to see what's new at one of Longmont's favorite cultural spaces!
The rec center and museum have extensive parking (including a new lot for the museum!), but it may fill up. Please give yourself time to find neighborhood parking if needed. I don't expect it to fill up this early.
After exploring the museum, we'll head over to Parkway Food Hall for lunch. With lots of different food options, it's a great place to grab a bite and continue the conversation. Lunch is optional and at your own expense.
A walk is another way to connect with nature and other community members. All ages and fitness levels are encouraged. Bilingual (Spanish) is welcomed.
