Every year, the South Side Slopes Neighborhood Association hosts the popular Step Trek. A vigorous historical walking tour navigating one of the Slopes most unique features; over 2700 steps that wind through the neighborhood. Now in its 11th year, the event features different routes, allowing the trekkers to customize the experience. The infamous "Black Route", the most breathtaking (literally) of the treks, has added a leg to its tour, taking the walker through a little known section of the Slopes called "the hollow". All of the routes provide the participant with the famous unobstructed views that many residents of the Slopes get to enjoy on a daily basis.
You can visit the SSSNA's website for more information and to purchase tickets for the event, or order t-shirts. Tickets this year are $9.99 in advance, and $15 the day of the event. Proceeds go to benefit the SSSNA, a volunteer organization devoted to maintaining and improving this unique neighborhood.
Oh wait, if you visit Facebook Page (and become a fan if you aren't already of course!), you will find instructions on how to get a code for a free ticket!! That's right folks......FREE!!!! I only have 4 available, and they will go to the first four people I receive responses from, so don't dally...
Since we're being so nice and all, you should be sure to stop by our listing at 40 Hartford Street, which will be open from 12-4PM the day of the event. Here's a little sneak peek.....
