Parmenter School: Story Walk

StoryWalk is an exciting initiative that combines a children’s story with a popular walking route, developed in September 2007 by Anne Ferguson in Vermont. Ferguson conceived of StoryWalk as a way to inspire parents, teachers, and caregivers to take young children on a short stroll that will be fun for all.

While the current book will stay up all year, Girl Scout Troop 80913 of Franklin will be hosting a GRAND OPENING this Saturday, October 30th, from 2-4pm.

The walking trail is located behind the Parmenter School in Franklin.


Organization: Girl Scouts of Eastern MA (Troop 80913)
