LOOKING FOR A FEW GOOD HIKERS

Well, that was just to get you attention. But, we are looking for a few good people to become club officers. The jobs aren't difficult, they just require some time away from the trails. If it's important to you to have a hiking club, please consider how you can contribute. The Susquehanna Trailers have been successful since 1932, because individuals have given of their time to lead the club. We have over 100 members. Surely there are four people who could be an officer for one term. Please contact any of the current officers if you can serve.

TIME CHANGE

Just a reminder that Daylight Saving Time will end on November 1st. Turn your clocks back one hour to return to Standard Time.

CHANGE OF MEETING NIGHT

The Susquehanna Trailers are planning to change the night that we hold our bi-monthly meeting. It was suggested that we would have a better turn out of members if the meeting was a night other than Friday. Starting with in February 2010, meetings will be held on Thursday evening. The dates still need to be finalized with Kinston Recreation Center, but we don’t expect any problems. So mark your calendars for the new year.

At the last Trailers meeting, officers and members discussed giving new hikers a copy of the club rules on their first hike.  This will be up to the discretion of the hike leader.
 
President Rich McNulty wants to remind members that footwear is an important part of being properly prepared for a hike.

President Rich McNulty reminded members that if there is any question about a hike cancellation, it is the member's responsibility to check with the hike leader. The leaders' phone numbers are posted with the hike information.

 

 

PLEASE READ the SIGNS

Frances Slocum State Park has areas that allow hunting. These areas are posted, but not everyone is aware of that some trails are in the hunting area. For your safety, pay attention to the signs when hiking. Maps are available at the park office.
