Sunday May 24th Memorial Hike and Gathering in Honor of Bill

Thanks to everyone for coming. Happy Fathers Day! We all miss you Bill!

The memorial hike to scatter Bill’s ashes in the high peaks area of the Adirondacks and a gathering in Elizabethtown, New York will be on Sunday, May 24, 2009 rain or shine. We have selected Owl Head Lookout, which is a moderate hike of 3-4 hours roundtrip. You should bring layers of clothing, including a waterproof outer shell in case of wet weather. Waterproof or leather boots are recommended as the trail may be muddy from snow and spring runoff. Bring water, energy bars and snacks. Leaving 8 am Sharp from the trail head.
