Recommended: sunglasses, sunscreen, scarf, gloves, jacket, hat that won't blow off, etc. As you know San Francisco weather can change from hot to cold if a breeze picks up, so layers recommended. Only rain will cancel. The usual SF fog will not deter us! Forecast currently shows 5/28 will be partly cloudy, mid 60s, but San Franciscan's know it will feel cooler if there's a breeze. - Comfortable walking shoes (walking sticks optional)

- Most people are coming on their own to this event, so please help us make everyone feel welcome with a smile and introduce yourself and keep others company on the walk. It's a great way to meet new people and try to find out all the things you have in common while enjoying a beautiful walk! Walkers will have color coded beads, so you can find others in your walking group before the walk starts.
