10-Trail Challenge Hike

Hello Friends,

I have decided to register for the 10 Trail Challenge. I have posted a little bit of information about the challenge below, as well as added a link to the webpage. Below is a list of what you get with registration. If I get two people to register, we get a free registration (worth $39) that we can split. However, if you do not want to register, but you want to join me in the hikes, I have provided a list of the hikes, some information about them, and when I’m going to do them. I will try to stick to the schedule and I will hike rain or shine, however, if it is unsafe I will reschedule as soon as I can. If you’d like to carpool, I will meet you at the Vedder Off-Leash Dog Park (Rotary Trail) parking lot. The times listed are the times we start the hike!

WHY TAKE THE CHALLENGE?

The 10 Trail Challenge will motivate you to explore new trails and discover new places to chill out (even more fun with friends!). You’ll enjoy a wonderful sense of accomplishment, get free coffee, enter to win prizes, and show off completion badges online. You’ll also be SUPPORTING local businesses and non-profits. What could be better?
