THE MEN ARE GOING HIKING!
MARCH 26
Jeannie Mooney has been leading our Women's Hiking Group for the last few years, so Pastor Bob decided it was time to get the men out on the trails! This is a chance to make some new friends and get exercise. Men of all ages are welcome. Invite friends! Once a month on Saturday morning we will take a 4–6-mile hike on a local trail. The hikes will range from easy to moderate. Each hike will begin with a short devotion and end with anyone who wants to grab a cup of coffee and enjoy each other’s company at a nearby coffee house.
Our first hike will be the Hicks Canyon Trail in Irvine. We will meet at Hicks Canyon Park on Viewpark Avenue and Culver in Irvine (just north of Irvine Blvd) at 8am and begin the hike at 8:15am. This is a relatively flat trail and is about 5 miles round trip. After the hike we will walk over to the Starbucks on Irvine Blvd and Culver to relax and chat.
Once you join, you will receive emails about each month's hike and a link to RSVP.
