The Volkssportverein Friedrichsburg walking club will be hosting a Founders Day Walk in Fredericksburg on Saturday, June 13th. This walk honors Reverend Kenn Knopp, a Fredericksburg native, who organized the first volksmarch in America in 1976. It took place in Fredericksburg, the town which he loved so well.
The photo above of Colorado River Walker Doug E. was taken by Martin Callahan on a walk in Fredericksburg earlier this year.
The start point for this walk is at the Kinder Halle pavilion in the Marktplatz in the middle of Fredericksburg. The address for the Marktplatz is 126 W Main St, Fredericksburg, TX 78624. Walkers may register for the walk between 8:00 and 11:00 AM, and they must be finished by 2:00 PM.
