H.E.A.T. Hiking at Coyote Hills

Hey Everyone,

If you signed up for Adopt-A-Family, please check the event as I've only heard from a small portion of the 47 people signed up.

Also a reminder that Sunday we'll be participating in Feed The Hood 8

This week we'll be at Coyote Hills in Fremont for 6-7 miles. The trail is great for beginners as there are only about 3-4 short inclines/declines. Also a great jogging trail if you want to push yourself a little more or just run intervals to get the heart racing. Rain is in the forecast for tomorrow and Wednesday but we should be good by Saturday. If more rain comes this week, there's also an all paved trail that's available there. The gates open at 8am so we'll be meeting at 8:30 AM and on the trail by 8:45 AM. PLEASE be on time as there are a number of directions to go once you park. We're starting on the Chochenyo Trail, which is on the opposite side of the road from the parking lot. Parking is $5 whether the booth is manned or not. $7 if you have a dog, which must remain on their leash throughout the park.

Please remember to bring water or a sports drink, tennis shoes with good traction or trail runners are fine for this trail, a snack for before, during or after the hike and your whistle.

If you have any questions, please ask away and I'll get back to you soon.

Carpooling is always recommended, so if you can offer a ride or need one, please speak up and I'm sure someone in your area will contact you.
