Itinerary:

 

Let's go green to one of the country's oldest St. Paddy's day parade, right here, in Atlanta!

The green plan is to wear at least one green piece of clothing, ride MARTA (that's green) to the Arts Center Station, hike around green Piedmont Park, find a suitable spot along the parade route (marked w/ a green arrow on the map above) to cheer on the parade participants (including one of our AOC member, Amy), walk back to the Arts Center Station, and then ride the big green machine back home.

How to Get There:
Event Directions:

I will email participants the exact meeting location and detailed directions a few days before the event.


Notes:

  • Please, no unregistered guests or +Ones!

  • Late cancellations, particularly within 36 hours of the event, make it difficult for those on the waitlist to attend. Please be courteous to your fellow AOC members and cancel with as much notice as possible.

  • If you need to get in touch with me, the best way is to TEXT me with your NAME at 4O4 7-Five-4 5OO5.

  • I usually hike RAIN-or-SHINE! However, in case of severe weather or other unforeseen emergencies that warrant a cancellation, I will text/email you at least TWO HOURS before the start of the event.


* We encourage all members to follow our Etiquette Guidelines while participating in AOC events.

Cost Includes:

There is no cost for this event.


Cancellation/Partial Attendance:   Please review the AOC cancellation policy.
*Note:

  1. If Life happens, and you need to cancel, please go to the AOC website and deregister by the deadline. If the site will not cooperate, TEXT me with your NAME at 4O4 7-Five-4 5OO5. FYI, thanks to those annoying robocalls, calling me will send you to my voicemail, but feel free to leave a message.

  2. In order to earn credit for this event, participants must complete the entire hike/event with the group, or within the stated time frame.
