SHERBURNE – Local environmental educators are leading a nature walk for active seniors Wednesday through a section of the Pharsalia State Forest.

The hike is part of the Rogers Environmental Educational Center’s “Active Senior Series.” Once a month educators organize outdoor activities for retired people seeking light exercise and an opportunity to get out of the house for a few hours.

“We were noticing in the past few years that we had retired folks coming to the center bringing their children and grandchildren, but that we really didn’t have anything that was targeted specifically to the active senior community,” said Rogers educator Chris DeCesare.

Events include hikes, canoe trips and nature walks. A new one is offered about once a month.
