Granny D Walk & Democracy Festival!
August 3 @ 9:00 am - 2:00 pm
5th Annual Granny D Walk: 9:00am
At this time in our history, with so many threats to our democracy and so much money influencing our politics, let’s join in the Granny D Walk and recognize a hero of democracy.
This year’s walk honoring Doris “Granny D” Haddock will begin near Granny D’s home on Cobb Meadow Rd. in Dublin at 9 am (Please plan to park in Peterborough at Riverwalk at 48 Grove St. and be shuttled to the start of the walk). We’ll walk approximately 6.2 miles to Putnam Park in Peterborough for 12 noon where we’ll enjoy lunch and the 2024 Democracy Festival!
Can’t walk the entire length? They will have stops along the way where you can join in!
