Middlesex County Hospital Lands Hike, July 14, 2024
August 27, 2024
The weather was hot and steamy but pleasant in the woods as five people and one dog trekked on the Western Greenway Trail from Our Lady’s Church through the Middlesex County Hospital lands north of Trapelo Road. We crossed Woburn Street and walked into the Met State Hospital property over the long boardwalk in Lexington.
We thank WLT steward Alan Richardson for his amazing work clearing the path for our passage!

Over 60 nature lovers of all ages came to Christ Church for a program with Rick Roth the Snake Man and the Cape Ann Vernal Pool Team . We were introduced to many snakes found in New England and the world. Members of the team walked through the audience with them so everyone could see up close and take photos. Afterwards, brave people who wanted to hold the legless reptiles were given that opportunity. Many thanks to the Waltham Cultural Council for supporting this event!
