It’s back to the Northumberland Forest on Sunday afternoon. The Beagle Club Trails will be closed to all activites except cross country skiing starting in December so we’ll get some more hikes in there beforehand, and it’s a good refresher for remembering the trails when the snow comes. Bring fluids and a snack. and once again we can figure out where we want to go once we meet. Plan to be out for a couple of hours or so, but if someone wants to hike a shorter distance, it’s possible to start with a loop that’ll bring us back to the lot to drop them off.
Date: Sunday, November 6th
Start Time: 1:00
Meeting Location: parking lot at Beagle Club Trail
Hike Organizer: Maria Siemiaszko

The group will meet at the parking lot behind Harden and Huyse to car pool to the Woodland parking lot, but if you prefer to meet everyone up there instead, please indicate that in your comment. If everyone is agreeable, there can be a stop at the Scenery Drive Restaurant (on 45 at Cty Rd 22 aka Centreton Road) on the way home.

The temperature should be pretty nice for November so if you want to move your legs, get some fresh air, and enjoy the outdoor scenery, come for a hike in the Northumberland Forest. In case the bears are still around we should make enough noise to keep them away! We’ll amble along for a couple of hours or so and can decide where we want to go as a group once we meet. Bring some fluids and a snack.
Date: Saturday, November 6th
Start Time: 10:00
Meeting Location: Beagle Club parking lot in Northumberland Forest

It’s going to be a great time for a hike and Halloween celebration. Weather is looking good….17C and likely rain-free! Just a reminder about tonight’s Halloween Hike & Potluck. Bring a spooky friend, a yummy dish for sharing, wear your most hallow-ish costume and have fun! By the way, if you are looking to get a ticket for the upcoming Social and AGM on Nov. 9 we’ll have some on-hand so you can pick one up tonight!

It’s been a great season for cycling, hasn’t it? The NHCC is entirely volunteer-driven, and we encourage some feedback to let us know how we are doing. We are committed to always seeking ways to make the NHCC awesome, but we could use your input. Can you spare about 5 minutes to fill out just 7 quick questions before the upcoming Annual Meeting and Social coming up soon on Wednesday November 9, 2016? We’ll share the results with everyone at the meeting!

It may not sound like much, but we really do use the results to guide and direct the club for the next season as we do our planning over the winter. It’s totally anonymous, we promise (unless of course you choose to identify yourself). If you experience difficulty using the survey below, simply click on the Survey link here.
