- SRR established a supervised walking program in June 2001, through a partnership between SRR and the Salisbury Parks and Recreation Department. Led by SRR club member, Bob Zirt, the group of 5-10 walkers, sometimes as many as 12-14, met at the Salisbury Greenway on Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings. Club member Nancy Brandt was featured in an article about the supervised walks in the Salisbury Post.
