Nature Hike - POSTPONED due to bad weather!

Hey trailblazers, we did not hike on Saturday, February 28 due to bad weather. Rugged explorers though we are, we will probably get more recruits if we hike when it's not snowing!

I will leave the basic details of the event here, as they will stay the same even if the date changes.

What: Day Hike
Where: Busiek State Park
When: POSTPONED due to bad weather; new date to be determined!
Who: Anyone who is interested can come! This event is open to all Drury students, faculty, and staff. You might even be able to bring a friend from outside the school if you want.
Why: Because it will be tons of fun! We can observe wild animals and plants while soaking in the tranquil beauty of our surroundings.

How (AKA The Game Plan): Meet at the FSC circle (by the fountains). We will carpool from there to Busiek. If you have a car, please volunteer to drive. If you are planning to get a ride with someone, please bring a couple bucks to help pay for gas. Otherwise, this event is FREE.

We will hike until the mid or late afternoon and be back to campus before dark. Please BRING YOUR OWN WATER/BEVERAGE in a reusable bottle. We do not buy bottled water for our events anymore, as it is wasteful even if we do recycle. Some snacks will be provided, but we won't eat a meal on the trail, so eat a nice breakfast before we leave.

This hike will not be strenuous or dangerous, though it will be long. Busiek is a beautiful area with many interesting sights.

For more information, don't hesitate to contact me.

Hope to see you on the trail!

Sincerely,
Amy

  2. Thanks for the good wishes, Dawn! Unfortunately, we decided to postpone the hike because of the snow. Oh well, there's always a next time!
