Club Treasurer Bill Beck has volunteered to lead a hike of about 4.5 to 5 miles. If you wish to join Bill's hike, meet at Shelter 3 down by the river at 1:30 PM. He plans to be back from the hike by 3:30 PM, in time for the club's 4:00 short meeting and 4:15 presentation on the park.
As was the case in last year's outdoor meeting, feel free to bring a picnic basket with your own goodies if you want to eat at the park. The club will provide water and snacks for all participants.
