| Since Volkssporting arrived in Connecticut with the Hardware City Hoofers of New Britain
AVA-598 (HCH) in 1989 and the Connecticut Valley Volkssport Club AVA-784 (CVVC) in 1993,
we have hosted over 50 events (year-round, seasonal, one-day) across all 8 Connecticut
counties, and in other states. Most of the events were 10k (6.2 mile) walks, although we
have also hosted a couple of biking events, a swim and a cross-country ski. We pride
ourselves on including written commentary on points of interest along our trails, in
addition to the basic map and directions. |
