Executive Committee and Appointees

Steve Farrow has decided that the best way to say goodbye to Winter is to enjoy it to the utmost! Be sure to bring your snowshoes and be ready to trek in the snow. We will meet at the Holland Pond Fishing Access at 10:00 am and walk to the trail head (partly plowed, partly not.) We will then make our way through the Bill Sladky Wildlife Refuge to Round Pond.....where we will check out the new lean-to! Bring some hot chocolate and snacks, be prepared for the weather,

Let Steve know you plan to come by emailing him at ssf01290@ccv.vsc.edu

Verna Stoddard is leading a snowshoe hike. Meeting at the Community National Bank in Island Pond, leaving for trailhead at 9am. Parking is limited at trailhead so we will carpool if possible. Snowshoes required, also bring water, snacks, and warm layers. Also recommend spikes and water proof clothing in case of ice and/or rain. 
This is a 4 mile loop hike with 328 feet of elevation gain. The hike will be flexible for length and duration, this could be decided by the group the day of based on comfort level.

Dogs are welcome.

Also Verna is considering bringing a stove to make hot chocolate or prepare some in advance in a big thermos to share. RSVP gmcnek@gmail.com
