While Event Organizers provide a framework for your Meetup experience, you are responsible for your own safety and well-being. By signing up for our Meetups, you acknowledge and agree that hiking, outdoor activities and any of our Meetups carry the risk of injury or even death, and that you accept those risks. Further, you understand and accept this disclaimer and agree not to bring any type of claim against the Event Organizers, James River Hikers or other participants.
James River Hikers does not charge money for membership or Meetups.
We do however have expenses as we need about $700 per year to pay the Meetup company + money to fund our gravestone cleaning project. While not required, we would be grateful for your support by participating in the Kroger Community Rewards Program.
Details on how to apply for the Kroger program are posted as informational meetups on the final day of the month about quarterly. Like this one.

Apr 7, 10 AM ~ Oregon Hill Overlook to Kanawha Plaza
Oregon Hill Overlook - Oregon Hill Blvd. & South Pine St., Oregon Hill Boulevard & South Pine Street, Richmond, VA, USThis 3.0 mile hike begins at the Oregon Hill Overlook located near the intersection of South Pine Street and Oregon Hill Parkway. It's an urban hike (yawn) we will pass several of Richmond's locations of interest. Among them are the Mural Gallery at the Canal Walk, the Jefferson Hotel, Kanawha Plaza and the Canal Walk.
This is a hike over developed urban pavement and sidewalks where the only hazards are automobile traffic, panhandlers, loose bricks and the occasional uneven crack in the sidewalk!. This hike will begin at the posted time, not five or ten minutes later. If you need help on directions, click on the inset map to display a larger interactive map. When you select "Directions" (upper left) the best route from your location to the Meet Up rendezvous spot will be calculated for you.Participants should be able to maintain a pace of 2.5 miles per hour but the ability to negotiate rocks, roots, low hanging branches, uncertain footing on hills, bridges and toxic plants in season will be waived for this downtown excursion. Just be careful with the uneven sidewalks and cobble stone streets!
There is no parking lot on Oregon Hill, but abundant curbside parking is available on one side of Oregon Hill Parkway and on South Pine and South Laurel Streets.
• What to bring
Water bottle, clothing appropriate for the season, aspirin, practical footwear, band aids, a cap, visor or bonnet, sunblock and dry clothes for after hike activities.• Important to know
