You can be inspired by the words of Martin Luther King Jr. as you take a winter walk at Lake Sammamish State Park. The walk pays tribute to his life and leadership. The walk begins at Tibbetts Beach bathhouse and continues along the lakeshore. Signage along the way will showcase his famous quotes, many as relevant today as they were in the 1960s when he initiated change while speaking out for civil rights.
