Board member on the Schumacher Arts, Culture and Heritage Association Lloyd Salomone said the upcoming Miner’s Walk is something any body can do and enjoy.

On top of the Miner’s walk, Salomone said there’s plenty more to do for anyone young and old.

We have a Creedence Clear Water Revival cover band set to play J.J.’s Ranch Thursday night and we’ll have a DJ playing music from the past 100 years. There will be a cash bar and food being served as well on Friday and Thursday night.”

The Miner’s walk kicks off at the McIntyre Ballroom at 6 p.m. where residents will walk from the Mac to the McIntyre mine head frame and back.
