Get outside and READ!
Looking for a new way
to enjoy the outdoors? It's on the path behind the playground (which is
behind the Hopkinton Town Library). The book, Moose
Tracks, by Karma Wilson, is displayed along the
path for you and your family to read as you walk. The book was
generously donated by Main Street Bookends, located in Warner, NH.
Knowlton Realtors provided the box holding the trail notebook. Be sure
to let us know that you've been on the trail by recording it in the
notebook and tell us what you think!
The Story Walk TM will be there from now until spring, for you to enjoy in sneakers or snowshoes!
Free and open to the public. Questions? Call the Hopkinton Town Library at 746-3663 or email Lmaynard@hopkintontownlibrary.org
