Nancy Rumple led a hike for the long hikers to Big Basin State Park. We stopped for lunch here.
The weather was perfect, and a good time was had by all. Thank you, Nancy, for leading us so well.
Several members participated in a flag posting at the top of Sky way trail near the mail box this past Wednesday, June 12th . This was done in commemoration of flag day to remind us of the greatness of this country.

The soup & white elephant party was attended by around fifty members and their guests. The event started with heavy hors d’oeuvres followed by the main course, soup. There were several types ranging from split pea soup and French onion to many other delicious types. Dan Kato’s Mother celebrated her eight-eighth birthday with a surprise birthday cake and song. The evening ended with the white elephant gift exchange. There were many gifts and some were actually very nice for the event.
Our New Years Day Hike to the top was successful as we had about thirty-five members attend. The long hikers met at Foothill Center at 10:00 a.m. Leisurely hikers met at the upper garden parking lot at 9:15 a.m. We all met at the top of hill by the mail box at about 11:30. Members brought cookies, candy, various nuts, and other snacks to share with friends and fellow hikers. It was a beautiful morning for hiking and enjoying each others company.
