1/4/26 UPDATE: Revisit starting again in February 2026 due to the cold/ice!
This new Hiking Club by the Northfield Recreation Commission is in honor of past Recreation Commission members, Northfield residents and hiking enthusiasts: Sam and Barb Richardson!
As a new club, expect some alterations as we find the sweet spot, but for starters, we will begin on Mondays at 10am (and go for about an hour to 1.5 hrs) and an email will go out no later than an hour before our hike to let you know location (as it varies).
*If you want to join but can't do the current designated days/times, please register anyways, as it may change and you can keep up-to-date with email notifications and join when you can!*
Free to anyone who wants to join! You can just show up too, but registering for the year is helpful for waivers and also you will get an email in case of cancellations :)
Please dress appropriately, bring water, cell phone, medications you may need, bug repellent, sunscreen and hiking sticks if you want! (No pets)
A moderate hike. Not too easy but not too hard either. Adults can opt to split from group for a shorter/longer hike, or break off into another group. Kids under 18 must be accompanied by an adult unless given prior authorization by the hike leader.
Plan on a cancellation for poor weather, but maybe we go year-round? Maybe we just do spring and fall? Will be guided by Stacy Bond to start, but if we have others to volunteer as guides, we can potentially offer a variety of days/times... but let's get it going and we'll work out the details as we go! :)
