Everyone made it out of the woods safely. I do not know final numbers of participants and money raised, but will report that once I do.
The 2019 Hike for Hospice event will be on May 5, 2019 in Laurier Woods. This
is an opportunity for people to enjoy the beauty of Nature!
This is a short event. We will meet at 0930ET in the parking lot at the end
of Brule Street to give out the SMEAC, assign checkpoints, and then head out
to our respective spots in Laurier Woods. During the event I will be roving
throughout the trails. The hike itself starts at 1100ET, and most
participants are expected to be clear by 1300ET. Last year we had some people
start their walk before 1030ET.
North Bay Mattawa Conservation Area Canoe Race
Require 5 or so members. All day event.
1 checkpoint is canoe access.
Bring Lunch, Supper provided at the Arena post-race.
Please use the webpage to sign up.

Sunday October 14, 2018 morning event, followed by a bowl of Chili.
Muster at the hospital (146.52 will be the frequency for talk in) at 08:30 or go directly to your point for 09:30 (the start of the trail run).
We have to track the runners on the trail to ensure there are no injuries.
We should have three or four stations to cover the event.
Thanks in advance.

Please bring a lunch as this has been difficult in the past
logistically. Dinner will be served at the start/finish. It is catered
by gd2go , and is always very, very good!
Please dress appropriately for the forecast weather (cool, chance of rain). Also, our hosts have encouraged an extremely environmental event and as such request that we bring our own mess kits for dinner. Plate, bowl, cup and utensils please :)
