Waco Walks
Waco Walks is a casual, constant gathering of Wacoans encouraged to get out and active in their community. This group explores various parts of the community during all times of the year. While some enjoy just moving and enjoying scenery, there are also educational walks that present the local history or surrounding science. All Wacoans are welcome to relish in a more walkable community.
