The group will visit the following parks through December:

July – Jervey Gantt

August – M.O.M. S.

September – Fort King National Historic Landmark,

October – MLK Memorial Park

November – Lillian Bryant

The cost is $10 per person to participate. The last day for registration is November 2 and participants can register online at the City of Ocala’s Senior Walking Club webpage.
