Bob Comeau will once again narrate a wonderfully informative walking tour of the Holyoke Canal System. Join us for a tour of the 1st and 2nd level canals and learn about the canal system from how it was built in the 1800’s to its continued use today. It’s also a great way to help you reach your daily goal of 10,000 steps!
