REQUIREMENTS FOR GRATITUDE WALKS/HIKES:
No one wants to find themselves in a situation where they are lost or hurt in the ‘middle of nowhere by themselves – it’s vital that everyone follow the guidelines to prevent such a scenario, no matter the likelihood of it happening.

Please DO NOT sign up for a hike if you are not planning to finish it (For safety concerns, we start out together and end together. Unless it is an emergency, you will be removed from the group if you show up for the gratitude circle then leave after or leave halfway into the hike).
*Keep an ID with your emergency contact/s information with you at all times, just in case there is an emergency.
Bring water to stay hydrated, snacks for energy, bug/tick repellant, wear comfortable clothes (non-cotton if possible.. to keep dry), and wear trail sneakers or hiking shoes/boots for comfort.
*Be open, accepting, and respectful at all times. Also, you can social distance and wear masks if you feel more comfortable doing so.

KINDLY DON'T BE A NO SHOW. Please be considerate and cancel your spot at least 24 hours in advance, especially on a hike with a wait list. No shows and last minute cancels will not be included in future events.
