Description: Be a part of something. The Rolling Acres Mall Mallwalkers Club - Retro styled Akron Ohio defunct shopping mall.

Dues were 50 cents a month and were paid the last Monday of the month when they all gathered at the York Steak House. The club was so active they had their own bulletin board that hung in the Higbee court. They even formed a 35-member choir that would perform in the mall's picnic area.
