West Seneca Chamber to host new ‘Walk & Talk’ events

Aug 6, 2020 | Events

The West Seneca Chamber of Commerce will introduce a series of six “Walk & Talk” events to take place on six different walking trails during the coming weeks. The series will be an informal opportunity for Chamber members and nonmembers to network while enjoying some fresh air and a healthy activity for mind and body.

“With so many of our in-person events cancelled this year due to the pandemic, we wanted to do something that would still bring West Seneca’s business and organizational leaders together, but in a safe environment,” said Joe Kirchmyer, executive director of the West Seneca Chamber of Commerce. “West Seneca has six parks that have walking trails, so we thought we’d take advantage of our beautiful summer and fall weather to check out these walking trails and talk about the West Seneca business community.”

The Walk & Talk events are free and open to the public. Social distancing will be enforced, and all participants will be asked to wear a mask.

Following is the Walk & Talk schedule. All events will take place and noon sharp:

• Wednesday, Aug. 26, Burchfield Park, Union Road and Race Street. (This is the only park without a paved path, so be sure to wear appropriate footwear.)
• Wednesday, Sept. 2, Harlem Road Park, just north of the intersection of Seneca Street and Harlem Road.
• Wednesday, Sept. 9, Switzer Park (formerly Knox Park), off Knox Avenue between Indian Church Road and Mineral Springs.
• Wednesday, Sept. 16, Tim Russert Park, on Indian Church Road just west of Harlem Road.
• Wednesday, Sept. 23, West Seneca Soccer Complex, off Seneca Street.
• Wednesday, Sept. 30, Sunshine Park, located on the eastern end of East & West Road, just before Leydecker Road.

In the event of inclement weather, events will be cancelled. Please follow the Chamber’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/WestSenecaChamberofCommerce/ for updates.

The West Seneca Chamber of Commerce is an independent, nonprofit business organization with approximately 275 members. Membership is open to businesses, nonprofit organizations, retirees and individuals. For more information, please call 674-4900 or visit www.westseneca.org.
