Walktober

What better place to get moving for "Walktober" than North Beach! Walking is the perfect activity for people of all ages and the boardwalk in the Town of North Beach is the perfect place to walk.

While Governor Hogan recently proclaimed October as "Walktober" to highlight the benefits of walking, we would like to invite you to the boardwalk to get moving on Saturday, October 16, 2021 at 8 am. Come alone, bring a friend or a group. All are welcome! More details to follow.
