The UUCY Ramblers gather weekly to stay connected and healthy. Members and friends who like to walk are encouraged to join us when you can. The upcoming walks will be held on Wednesday mornings, 9 AM, at different parks around York County. Walks will be 2 – 3 miles. Whether you prefer brisk or leisurely walking, all are welcome to come and walk at your own pace. If you have questions about a specific walk, contact the walk coordinator listed below.

In addition to the regular monthly schedule noted below, we may occasionally schedule special walks at various locations on other days during the week. If interested in leading such a walk, contact Joan Fulton. Just like our ramble schedule, you will find the extra walks listed in the Wednesday Beacon and on the UUCY calendar.

Below is the new monthly schedule for Jan-April 2026:

First Wednesday: YORK TOWNSHIP PARK, 25 Oak St, York (Meet in the large parking lot on the main access road.) | Coordinator: Kathy Smith 717-891-9568

Second Wednesday: UPMC HOSPITAL, 1701 Innovation Dr, York (Parking spaces are designated for trail walkers on the outside edge of the parking lot.) | Coordinator: Joan Fulton 717-873-7541

Walks are rarely canceled, but if in doubt, give the walk coordinator a call. 

Some folks have expressed interest in hiking one of the trails at the Wizard Ranch Nature Preserve on Accomac Rd, Hallam. The Preserve’s website has all the info you’ll need, including the GPS directions to get you there. Even if you’ve previously visited, the Lancaster Conservancy has been hard at work making improvements, and there are more trails to explore. 

​For those who might be interested and available, Joan Fulton will lead a walk there Sunday, November 16 following our vote to call Rev. Christin. We can carpool from church provided the weather cooperates. I plan to do about a mile and a half over rolling terrain. There’s a stream to cross, so hiking boots are a good idea. No need to RSVP, just show up at UUCY Sunday morning. It just might be a good opportunity to celebrate!
