April 10(Saturday)  MS Walk (new course)
  7:00 am - 2:00 pm

The MS Walk has a course change this year. The Walk will not be on the C&O Canal this year. Instead, the Walk will be a 6-mile walk through Old Town Rockville, beginning and ending at the Rockville Town Square. Although the course has not been finalized, it is anticipated that the course will basically be a loop having a chord between the Town Square and Woodley Gardens, with inbound and outbound rotes distributed around the chord. It is anticipated that communications will be on a local 440 MHz repeater, probably the RACES repeater with the MARC 440 and 2-meter as back up, depending on availability.
