Company and GRC offer free hikes in cities

Gore Mutual Insurance Company and the Grand River Conservation Authority are offering free meadow hikes in September in Cambridge and Guelph.

Gore Mutual’s Stars of the Meadow Hikes will give participants a chance to discover the beauty of fall wildflowers and meadow insects, and learn how to identify them.

The hikes will be led by interpreters from GRCA nature centres.

Gore Mutual is sponsoring the hikes as part of its support of GRCA environmental programs.

Although the hikes are free, donations for the GRCA education program will be accepted. The hikes are on:

– Sept. 25 at Guelph Lake Nature Centre, from 2 to 4pm. Register in advance by calling 519-836-7860.
