Walking Society: Fre…
Walking Society: Fremont Older OSP
November 1, 2024 9:00 am - 11:30 am
Bank of America, 1660 S De Anza Blvd, San Jose, CA 95129, USA
Fremont Older OSP
Helene will lead walkers to enjoy the natural views at the Fremont Older Open Space Preserve. We will follow the Seven Springs Loop, then veer up to Hunter’s Point for a breathtaking view of the valley and bay. This is about 3.5 miles. It is hilly in some places so should be considered a moderate hike. It has a mix of sun and shade. Due to limited parking at Fremont Older, let us meet at the Bank of America parking lot at 1660 S De Anza Blvd, San Jose. Our carpool will leave promptly at 9AM. This walk is perfect for cooler weather. Contact Helene Kippen at 408-887-4335 if you have questions or concerns.
Note: we encourage you to bring water and a hat to all of our walks/hikes
CONTACT: If this is your first walk with the Walking Society, please send a message to WalkingSociety@SJWomansclub.org with "Join Walkers List" in the subject line. Once Lisa receives your message, she will send you additional important info about our walks.

Join us at our newest group. Avid gardeners all, we clear our minds and find inspiration working in the garden; we work on keeping our bodies fit and strong, and in the soil we find the immense satisfaction that gardening can bring. We promote sustainability, planting native species, protecting pollinators, and safe and healthy practices. We produce beauty, peace, conviviality, good things to eat and bouquets galore! We share garden know-how, learning from each other and from garden masters. We visit other people’s gardens and gardens of note near and far. We share cuttings and seeds and, most importantly, we share, nourish and grow friendship. We welcome you to come grow with us!
Group meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month at a member's garden or a public garden, usually from 4-5:30 pm.
Contact: Mary Lou Mason, garden@sjwomansclub.org
