Newport VA: Southeast Virginia Chapter, Chapter Walk and Shell Ceremony

Join us for a Chapter Walk on the lovely Noland Trail – one of our favorites! The Noland Trail is a 4.8 mile loop around the lake adjoining the Mariner’s Museum, 100 Museum Drive, in Newport News. This hard dirt path is well-groomed with lots of twists and turns, and beautiful views of the lake. Generally considered an easy route, it takes about an hour and a half to complete. We will hold our Spring Shell Ceremony during the walk and we invite any upcoming Pilgrims to attend. Just let us know so we can add you and ensure we have a shell for you.

Plan to meet up with the group at 8:45 AM for departure at 9:00 AM. Park in the Mariner Museum parking lot. We will start at the path entrance to the left (looking at the Museum entrance). If you are planning to come please email us at our address – southeast virginia@americanpilgrims.org to let us know, and please include your phone number should we need to postpone due to bad weather and to ensure we have the right number of pilgrim shells.
