Baker Creek Preserve Hike in Knoxville + Coffee

==================
ABOUT THE EVENT

Let's stay local and do a hike at Baker Creek Preserve. We'll do 3 miles, but we can adjust as needed. It's fairly easy, with some moderate incline, suitable for most fitness levels. We'll meet at the Baker Creek Preserve Pavilion.

For those that would like, we will grab some coffee at Commonplace Coffee afterwards to connect and get to know each other.

WHAT TO BRING
We always suggest carrying the 14 Essentials when going onto the woods. You can download a pdf file here that discusses these essentials.
Because it’s Tennessee, we need to always be mindful of the weather and bring the necessary insulation layers, waterproof outer layers, water and snacks to be safe.

LATECOMERS AND "NO-SHOWS"
Because this type of event has a lot of moving parts it’s important that everyone is on time (or early). We would hate to leave a hiker behind because they’re running late. If your plans change and you can’t come on the hike, please change your RSVP so we’re not waiting for you or looking for you.

We will meet at the new Baker Creek Preserve Pavilion. It's an orange pavilion seen here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KHpvlRxAUDzmBGyjjRUlmPn4rOVZ9P3S/view?usp=sharing

*** Failure to change your RSVP or let us know at least an hour ahead of the hike's start time qualifies as a 'No-Show' with me, and you may not be able to join my future hiking or backpacking trips ***
