!!! seems it only displays well the 2nd time? ugh.

McColluch Family Open Space –  We will walk the “Tree in the Gap Trail” and into the Lay Preserve and back. This beautiful property was once a horse farm. A highlight of the hike is Rook’s Meadow and Jimmy’s Pond. 2.5 miles.

Directions: Meet at the parking lot on Whippoorwill Rd. The parking lot is on the left 0.9 miles from the intersection of Rte 1 and Whippoorwill Road.

Reservations are required.  Please email sgould@oldlyme-ct.gov or call 860-434-4127 to reserve your spot. Free to Lyme’s Senior Center members. $5 for non-members.

On the 2nd Wednesday of each month the group will get together at various hiking areas in Lyme and Old Lyme.  Hikes will be lead by Wendy Hill, Open Space Coordinator of Lyme and the Vice President of Lyme Land Trust.  The walks are moderate, unless otherwise noted. Bring a water bottle and dress for the weather. Wear sturdy footwear and bring a hiking stick or pole if you would like. Everyone welcome. All hikes are 2.5 to 3 miles.  Inclement weather cancels the walk.
