Grace Cottage Annual Poker Walk

| News, Uncategorized

TOWNSHEND — October is National Physical Therapy Month. To encourage everyone to get out and exercise, Grace Cottage Hospital’s Rehabilitation Department will hold its 16th Annual Poker Walk on Wednesday, Oct. 15.

This free, fun, two-mile walk/run is held each year, rain or shine. No pre-registration is required.

Playing cards are distributed along the way; a prize for the best poker hand is awarded at the end. All participants are also eligible for door prize drawings. You may do the course as often as you wish, collecting a new poker hand each time.

Start any time 10:30 AM – 2:30 PM. Register at the Grace Cottage Wolff Outpatient Building, Route 35, Townshend. The course goes north for one mile on Route 35, then back again to the Wolff Building. It’s relatively flat by Vermont standards!

The event draws as many as 200 walkers. Join in – it’s fun!  Put on your walking shoes and come out for a healthy, good time. For more information, call 365-3637.
