Wisconsin’s first lady here Friday to walk the Arboretum

As part of her “Walk With Walker” campaign to promote the health benefits of walking and highlight some of Wisconsin’s best trails, Tonette Walker is coming to UW-Green Bay next Friday (Sept. 5) for a short outing at the Cofrin Memorial Arboretum. UW-Green Bay Prof. Robert Howe, the Arboretum director, will accompany the group as host and highlight points of interest. Participants should meet at Lambeau Cottage along the bayshore at 10:30 a.m. in advance of the 10:45 departure for the two-mile stroll. The location for the Green Bay-area hike was suggested to Walker’s staff by the local visitor and convention bureau as one of the city’s more popular and scenic trails. Reservations aren’t necessary, but if you’d like more background on the monthly outings, www.walkwithwalkerwi.org/event-schedule/.
