Itinerary:

Join us for a walk in the park. Haw Creek is a typically rather quiet Mountain Bike / Hiking Trails park. There is little elevation change, and the majority of the hike is wooded.

We'll meet at the trail head and hit the trail from there. The trail we'll be hiking is 3.3 miles, therefore we will walk it twice.

The park allows dogs, but remember it may be muddy depending on the weather prior to the hike.

Previous to the the hike, anyone interested is welcome to join us for lunch. We'll go to Happy Family Chinese Restaraunt (www.happyfamilycumming.com) after the Forsyth Greenway ride at approximately 12:30.

Before lunch I will be leading a ride at the Forsyth Greenway, which is approximately 10 min from Happy Family and 1o min from Haw Creek. We will be at Happy Family from 12:30ish to 1:30ish
