Come join us for a walk on the Cobbs Creek border of the city as part of Love Your Park Week!

Members of the Cobbs Creek WeWalkPHL group (who walk this section weekly) will be joined by Walk Around Philadelphia participants (who walk the whole city border twice a year, in segements) 

We'll meet at 5pm on the SE corner of Cobbs Creek Parkway and South 61st St (diagonally across from Anderson Elementary School) – from there we'll head up towards Market Street and back, with an option for a group to continue further on into the Haddington Woods.
