Walking Group
Walks are on Wenesday mornings and start at 9 AM (seasonal) and the walks are approximatley an hour. Our pace is more of a stroll than a power walk, covering about 1.5 to 2 miles during the hour. Some highlights of Doylestown history will be noted during each walk. We don't walk if it's raining and also take the winter season off too.
Winers
This activity was formed to further our enjoyment and education about wine. We meet, with or without spouses or significant others, the third weekend of the month on either Friday or Sunday evening. The host for that month selects the date, location, time and format of the gathering.
