Itinerary:

Let's take advantage of Friday's warm weather for a moderate hike at Vickery Creek.  Moderate is a relative term, so what does it mean for this hike?  Maintaining an average pace of 2.5 MPH, including limited water breaks.  If you're an experienced hiker this may feel slow.  If you're a beginner, this could feel uncomfortably fast.  

Please register if you have prior experience maintaining a 2.5 pace on trails (which is different from pavement).  The trip leader reserves the right remove any registrant who cannot keep pace with the group.  

Meet at Groveway Community parking lot: 160 Frank Lewis Drive.  When you arrive at the park entrance, continue straight to the upper parking lot (near playground).  Restrooms are available at this location.

Please arrive 10 minutes early to use facilities and make introductions.
