Forest Edge Nature Path

The CCC Cares Committee is excited to announce that the Forest Edge Nature Path has been created on the south side of the Blackwood Campus. There are kiosks placed along the woods that provide information on how to identify nearby trees and other plant species. The nature path connects with various trails into the woods.

Special thanks to Professor Edward Ramirez-Wright, The Biology Club, Facilities and The CCC Foundation for their contributions to create the Forest Edge Nature Path.

Introducing the Wellspring Walking Club

Wellspring Walking Club
The Wellspring Fitness Center will now be offering a twice weekly lunchtime walking group on Blackwood campus.

The group will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 12:30pm starting on October 4th. Beginning Tuesday, November 8th the meeting place is in the Madison Courtyard by the central flower bed (center of Madison/Taft/Library/Community Center.)

Participants will be doing one lap around the campus (roughly one mile or 20-30 minutes). There are no obligations to walk the entire time and you are welcome to come and go as you please along the way. Any and all ability levels are encouraged to come out.

The group will meet rain, snow, or shine so make sure to dress accordingly. Feel free to bring along a drink, a snack, and of course a friend! We look forward to seeing you!
