Next week will be the start of what we hope will become a regular Tuesday morning Hike/Walk if there is enough participation Bruce Bellaire will lead first of this series. After the hike those that wish are welcome to come to Harden & Huyse for a social and coffee (Okay, yummy chocolates too, if you are so inclined)

Start time: 9:30am
Start location: in front of 66 King St. East.

It’s going to be a little chillier than we are used to, but it doesn’t matter because you’ll be moving! We tend to walk pretty darn fast on our evening hikes. You’ll probably even get your heart rate going a little, justifying the hot drink that we’ll pop into The Social for afterwards.

What should you expect on a Wednesday night hike? We usually congregate in the parking lot at Port Hope Town Hall at 6:00 then head out for an urban hike that takes us in and out of the nooks and crannies of Port Hope. It’s a different atmosphere than a bike ride–You really get a chance to talk to each other and get to know them! The Christmas lights make November/December evening hikes particularly nice. Wear a pair of comfortable shoes, dress in layers–everything after that will take care of itself. 🙂

We, the volunteers at the NHCC are always looking for ways to make it the best darn club that we can! But we need your input to help direct our efforts. Can you take about 5 minutes to fill out just 7 shrimpy questions before the upcoming Annual Meeting next Wednesday November 18, 2015?
