John Brown Memorial Twilight Walk (Note Date Change)

Please note that this hike has been changed from Sunday November 3oth to Sunday December 7th – 4pm.

Join us for the annual John Brown Memorial Twilight Hike, as we commemorate John Brown and his unwavering support for civil rights. Hike will be held at the John Brown birthsite, on John Brown Road in Torrington. It is a 3/4 mile flat, but lumpy loop. We will begin with a poem, a prayer and some brief words about the sacrifices made by John Brown as we recall December 2, 1859, the day he was hanged. We encourage folks to wear hiking shoes and bring a light source, as the sun sets as we complete this short hike. The hike is sponsored by the Torrington Trails Network, the Torrington Historical Society and the John Brown Project.
