I’m a novice hiker and have loved getting out for training hikes this spring, both with other women from Wilderness Heals and with friends.” Tufts and her husband moved to Malden 10 years ago after moving back to Massachusetts from Seattle. “We love the city and the area, and I’ve enjoyed getting involved with the community through the Friends of the Malden Public Library,” added Tufts. “I work at GBH in Brighton for the investigative journalism series FRONTLINE. I’m on the business side of the series managing budgets, talent agreements and reporting to funders.” In addition to preparing for the physical and mental aspects of the hike, Tufts and the other hikers are also raising money to support the vital programs and services provided by the Stone House.
