North County Land Trust is excited to be collaborating with the Montachusett Veterans Outreach Center (MVOC) in Gardner to lead veterans on a guided walk. This nature hike with veterans is an opportunity for veterans and their families to venture out at various local hiking spots in the surrounding Gardner area – this one taking place at Otter River Conservation Area. This 1-2 miles guided walk will start at 1:00pm to give the perfect opportunity to explore some local trails and to take in all the beauty that New England has to offer.
(In the case of inclement weather, we will update the date here.)
Wear sturdy shoes and bring water.
