Summer is fast approaching and it's time to get outdoors! 

La Passeggiata is an Italian tradition: the end of the workday is marked by walking through one's hometown, stopping to say hi to friends, creating community and enjoying some exercise before the evening meal.

Our La Passeggiata for May will be a local favorite: Padden Lake. Meet by the restrooms that have the showers, near the beach (the first large exit to Padden from Samish Way, heading away from Bellingham). The loop around the lake is a gentle 2.6miles, and wide enough to walk two or three abreast. Link to a map.

We'll bring some mini stoves to make hot beverages for drinks after the walk, so bring a mug (we'll have cups if you forget). Please feel free to bring your dinner as well. The walk will take about an hour, and hanging out afterward will last as long as we want.

Dogs are totally welcome and encouraged!
