Hey there Fontana Friends,
I hope you are ready to join me as we meet and greet the Spring time with our Nordic poles and determination to get out there and hike! Please read and let Elizabeth know if you can join me. This is also a great time to sign up for an  introduction class again,if you feel rusty, and/or invite family, friends and interested parties to join me for a free class to introduce them to Nordic Walking, on April 9th at our Westside location.
There are also some other great clinics being offered this April at both locations that may peak your interest and help you make the most of another great Wisconsin spring and summer.
