Event Type

Late-day lighting and sweeping views from Provincetown to the South Shore await on this at-your-own-pace walk on the Brewster flats at low tide. After the walk, we’ll enjoy a warm drink and a Yankee book swap (optional). If you wish, bring a wrapped, gently used or inexpensive new book. Include a label with a teaser about the genre, setting  or plot (but not the title). In Yankee swap style, there may be some surprises, swaps, & steals. 

Meet at 1:15 pm to sign in and stretch. We’ll begin walking promptly at 1:30. Hosted by Sue Moynihan with Sweep TBD. Read to the bottom for directions to our meeting point.

Prerequisite: Instructional clinic
Distance: 2-3 miles
Pace: You choose
Terrain: 1 mile in the woods on hard pack trail with short hills, and 1-2 miles on a combo of packed and loose sand at low tide.

In consideration of personal and group safety, if you arrive without water, you will not be allowed to walk. Dress for the weather and protect yourself from the elements.

  1. What a great idea, Sue! Wish I could go but I hope you all have a fantastic time. Maybe you can share photos of the book covers so we’ll all know what books are being recommended (anonymously, of course – meaning just a cover photo after the unwrapping, so not attributed to the group member who brought it).
