The Fall River walk will start at the Snow Centre at 6:30 p.m.
The route is as follows: Cross Fall River Rd at the Crosswalk, turn left at Lockview and walk up past the schools on the sidewalk.
Cross Lockview Rd at a small parking lot (this is the only area where they will be no cross walk but we’ll make sure someone is out with a flag).
We will cross the river to Fletcher’s Lake Drive and Hwy 2 where we will cross at the crosswalk lights.
We’ll then head back down to Sobeys on the sidewalk, cross again at the lights and then head back to the Gordon Snow.The total walk is 3.8kms and we are estimating 45-60 minutes.
