Social distancing, socially (Lincoln Through the Lens)

March 22, 2020

Residents in the Beaver Pond Road neighborhood who put together a mailing list to keep in touch during the Covid-19 emergency came up with the idea of a “socially distant walkabout.” The first walk on March 20 featured chalk art in the street and celebratory decorations courtesy of Susan Demchak and Nancy Fincke. After one of the walks, Kip and Kallie Kumler handed out bottles of their Turtle Creek wine to those who completed the loop. The Beaver Pond Loopers now walk every day at 5 p.m. Resident Allen Vander Meulen reported that there were at east 30 people participating on Saturday, March 21.
