Itinerary:
I've been talking about doing an urban hike through the City of Decatur.  I'll make the hike up as we go along.  You can expect to see the cemetery...it's the oldest organized cemetery in the Atlanta area.  We'll also hike through some of the bungalow neighborhoods, swing by the library, the square, and with little arm twisting we'll spend 1/2 hour at the Brick Store - this part is optional - but if you should sign up - understand that the official hike ends at the store and I will walk whomever is ready after the 1/2 hour - back to the Avondale Station - to your vehicle.  Please act responsibly.

This is an explorer hike - that means - there is not a set trail - I'll just work my way through the city and neighborhoods.  I'm going to guess that the total distance will be approximately four to five miles.

Required Items to Bring:
Water, sense of exploration, plus some money for the Brick Store.		Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

How to Get There:
Event Directions:Let's meet at the Avondale MARTA Station.  That's at the intersection of Sycamore St/Dr and East Ponce de Leon.  Please park in the lot (it's free) - all the way to the back.  Look for my black Subaru.
