Hammond Trail Walk Sponsored by North Coast Parents

North Coast Parents will be sponsoring a walk on the Hammond Trail in McKinleyville on Thursday, July 31 from 2:00-4:00 pm. New and prospective members are welcome to attend. Parents and their babies, toddlers and preschool-aged children are invited to walk the stroller-friendly Hammond Trail. Meet at the newest section, just north of Vista Point on Hwy 101 to Strawberry Creek. Visit with friends and make new ones, during this peaceful walk. Parents and kids may even partake in a little treat from Ramone’s after a hard afternoon of exercise…feel free to join us there!

Organizing the walk is North Coast Parents (NCP), a local grassroots organization that was created 20 years ago to serve as a support group for parents of babies, toddlers and preschool-aged children. NCP offers activities, small play groups, field trips, and meetings in safe, nurturing environments that provide socialization for young children and their parents. Also offered is a babysitting co-op, parents’ night out events and meals to new parents. A monthly newsletter listing activities, parent education classes, recipes and health topics is sent to members. Annual membership is $30 and scholarships are available.
