Join us this time as we once again hit the trail in Schooleys Mt. Park (In the Washington Twp/Long Valley Area of Morris Co.). We will be taking a 1 to 2 hour or so hike in the woods/Mt of the park, followed by another pot luck picnic. Mark it on your calendars for Sat. September 25th at 10:30 AM.
Everyone should bring a cold side dish/dessert for the picnic....bean salad, pasta salad, cookies, pie, etc. Please make enough for 7 to 10 people (that way we will have plenty of food for all to share). I will once again be supplying the hot dogs and chiken, plates, cups, forks, napkins, ice, cups, condiments. (If you have any extra forks, plates, cups,...please bring them as well as we ran out last time...thanks!)
ALSO, bring your own favorite soft drink/water/juice!
PLEASE RSVP by September 23th so I know how many to shop for, PLEASE!
