💵 Why $ 7.00 dollar fee? 💵

– To Prevent “No-show Attendees”: Many people remain on the waiting list because our meetups reach capacity, and a significant number of those who register do not attend.
– To Cover Expenses: Platforms like Meetup, our website, AllTrails, and other digital resources come with subscription fees.
– To Support the Discovery of New Trails: I will allocate a portion of the funds to explore new hiking routes and adventures.

🤝🏽 Attendance Policy 🤝🏽

Masks are optional during the Meetup. We have and will continue to follow the regulations and guidance of local health and government officials and adjust accordingly.

No alcoholic drinks or smoking is allowed during the hike.
