Itinerary:

We will start the hike after introductions, this hike does have some steep areas, so be prepared to get your heart rate up. We should be done around 7:45-8ish and for those that would like to join the second portion of the event will begin at Bella'a Pizzeria for trivia. You do not have to attend trivia, as Jimmy Chen puts it, it's a nice way to socialize after hiking! Bella's Pizzeria does have a gluten and vegan menu, yay! Trivia starts at 8:30pm

Bella's Pizzeria: 3599 Atlanta Road Smyrna, GA 30080
