The Forest Preserve District of Kane County invites area seniors to join in the free monthly “Senior Stroll” programs.

On the first Thursday of every month, Forest Preserve naturalists lead a leisurely walk through a Kane County forest preserve and share the natural and cultural history along the way.

Dress for the weather — these outdoor programs celebrate the change in seasonal surroundings! Each program includes a pleasant ramble lasting about an hour, followed by social time in the shelter.

Mark your calendars for the upcoming Senior Strolls:

• Thursday, March 7, from 10 a.m. to noon, at Elburn Forest Preserve, 45W061 Route 38 in Elburn;

• Thursday, April 4, from 10 a.m. to noon, at LeRoy Oakes Forest Preserve, 37W700 Dean St. in St. Charles;

• Thursday, May 2, from 10 a.m. to noon, at Bliss Woods Forest Preserve, 5S660 Bliss Road, Sugar Grove.

No registration is required for these programs. To see a full roster of Forest Preserve District nature programs, visit www.kaneforest.com. Stay updated with the forest preserve district on social media by searching @forestpreserve.
