C & B Hikes

Hiking is great exercise. Join us! Remember to always think of hiking safety; boots, poles and plenty of water.

Please note that hike details are subject to change due to weather and other unforeseen situations. The hike Coordinator/Communicator will notify those hikers on the email list of such changes, when necessary. Also, more details about the hike will be sent to the email list a few days before each hike.

Hikers will meet on the day of hike at the staging area in the parking lot off Meeker Blvd. and RH Johnson Blvd., between the Library and the Bowling Alley in parking area #14 shown on the lamp post.

If anyone wants to be on the Hiker email list, send an email to Michael at manenen@sbcglobal.net or text to 312-213-9538.
