History of the Nature Ramblers
History of the Nature Ramblers
This group started in the fall of 2011
when Shirley Berry and Anne Shenk, in response to Michelle Obama's call to
"Let's Get Moving," started a group called "Circle of
Hikers" with an emphasis on hiking rather than rambling. The early
leadership duties were divided among Botanical Garden staff and volunteers: Ann
Shenk, Shirley Harris, Susan Cooper, Wade Seymour and Hugh and Carol Nourse.
