Princeton Adult School’s fall course list includes several sports and outdoor recreation classes, including a “learn to bike” class for adults, a bicycle repair and maintenance class, hiking in New Jersey and more.
The “learn to bike” class, taught by the founder of Bike Exchange, comprises four one-hour classes on Saturday mornings.
The four-session bike maintenance class will be held at Harts Cyclery on Route 31 in Pennington.
The hiking class will take participants to four different areas of the state on Saturdays. There’s also a separate class that spends an October morning exploring the woods at the Institute of Advanced Study with a professor who has studied the woods for more than 40 years.
The WWBPA needs your help to clear the Millstone trails of the damage done by Irene.

Consider it an extension of National Public Lands Day, which is Saturday, Sept. 24. Entrance fees at all national parks across the country will be waived that day.

Several volunteer events are planned for our area; the list is here.
The WWBPA lists many places to go for a walk (or ski) in the woods (look under Resources) and helps develop and maintain trails in West Windsor. For those looking for ideas farther afield, the Philadelphia Inquirer offers a list of several destinations in South Jersey.
