What we’re about
We walk!!! This group is for active women over 40 who want to meet and have fun! We have some great, fast-paced day trips and weekend trips doing a wide variety of things. The hiking will be mixed, some short, some long.
There may be sub-groups who walk faster and some who walk slower. I get in 14000 steps a day and that is 7 miles. On the trips, I'd like to get at least that amount in each day.
One more thing about communication, if you are on my trip and have a reason for not attending a dinner or one of the events, please discuss it directly with me. Also if I booked the hotel rooms and a change is needed, please keep communicating with me. I do not want to be stuck with a bill for a room you did not use. These vendors need full communication if we are not going to be the size of group that I had committed with them. Please do not call the restaurant or venue directly. Go through me. If you do not like one restaurant on the trip, that is fine, just as long as you tell me directly, so I know what to expect and can change the size of the reservation.
We go to dinners at unique restaurants, wineries, or anything in order to meet and discuss trips. It is important to meet before going on day or weekend trips! There are 3 organizers who create unique outings. If you want to be an organizer too, there are openings!
I am looking for women who want to participate in outings, the entire outing. If you do not visit this group on a regular basis (once in 3 months) or do not take part in any outings I will remove you to make room for other women who want to join. (You can always rejoin later if you don't have time now.) If you want to go on Road Trips, you must meet for 3 local or day trips events. I am not a Travel Company and do not collect money for my own activities, this is strictly a fun thing for me. I want friends who get along to travel together for Road Trips. In order to go, you need to meet me in advance. We can take a walk and talk. I need to make sure you understand the trips include walking.
It is best to sign up for events when you are sure you are going. These events are for small groups. When you sign up for an event that allows 8 people, you are taking a spot, filling a reservation, agreeing to be there. I am depending on your commitment. The restaurant or venue is depending on you. Businesses need our help after Covid, if you are not going to show up, the businesses have an opening that could have been filled by another. Please be mindful and don't be late either!
All trips out of town are done with carpooling. I encourage everyone to fit into a small number of cars which promotes teambuilding! We always need volunteers to drive too!
