What we’re about
WhyNot Adventures Who we are and what we do.
WhyNot Adventures is a social group that in various forms has been sponsoring hiking and outdoor activities of several decades. Our most frequent regularly scheduled activity is hiking on Sunday mornings beginning in October and continuing through April.
As our members have multiple interests including biking, kayaking and camping, these activities are also posted on our site, especially during our non hiking summer season.
Our Sunday Hikes begin at 9:30. Please allow yourself enough travel time to arrive, introduce yourself, and be ready to leave promptly out of consideration for those who have.
We hike rain, snow, or shine throughout the winter and spring, so dress accordingly for the conditions. Our hikes are social events but they are hikes, and though we stop frequently, they are not usually a stroll in the park. It is not always be the case, but depending on conditions, you should expect and be prepared for stream crossings, elevation gains, rough and potentially muddy trails.
Also depending on conditions and the group makeup we may have trail options of distance and difficulty. We stop and regroup during the course of the hike so none are left behind. Always let someone know if you are having difficulty.
Dogs and children who are well behaved and under control so as not to interfere or endanger others are welcome. Park regulations require dogs to be on leash. Leashes for children are optional unless behavior is a problem.
Please come prepared to enjoy the day and your fellow hikers. Many of us go to lunch together at a nearby restaurant following the hike. Food has always an important part of our group activities

I believe tickets are $28.00 each if purchased the day of the show at the gate. You can buy a book of ten tickets for $200.00
which comes out to $20.00 per ticket. If anyone has extra tickets, you are welcome to post in the comment section to sell.
The Whynots has been attending these concerts at Blossom over the years, and it makes for a wonderful summer evening.
9 out 10 recommend attending. In my opinion.
Hope to see you all there.

#### BEETHOVEN Violin Concerto
#### R. SCHUMANN Symphony No. 1, “Spring”
Beethoven’s Violin Concerto is the crown jewel of the violin repertoire, balancing seriousness and levity within a vast symphonic structure. Veronika Eberle makes her Cleveland Orchestra debut in this beloved showpiece before conductor Petr Popelka leads Robert Schumann’s “Spring” Symphony, a work written in the dead of winter that joyfully anticipates the renewal of the season to come.
