Campfire at the End of the Rainbow!! Join us at the campfire by the tennis

mosquitos), so if you’re looking for some gold this is the place to be. Be
sure to wear green!!! Email Justyn [log in to unmask] with any questions.



Friday:

Weekly sunrise hike– a “wake up” and down trek on Pine Cobble. Meet on
Paresky steps at 6:00 AM to witness a REAL sunrise at 6:59AM. This is a 3
mile hike round trip, one thousand foot elevation gain to get your blood
flowing and endorphins coursing through your veins!! Dress for the weather
-  winter hat/gloves needed for warmth at the summit, good footwear for a
trail that will be very muddy, wet and always rocky!  Bring a filled water
bottle and a cup for hot drinks.  Return to campus by 8:30AM. Please sign

Afternoon Kite-Hill Hike! 🪁 Enjoy the beautiful afternoon-evening weather
and decompress after this long week with a leisurely hike from Stone Hill
to the Kite Hill Trail. Expect temperatures in the mid- to low-60’s and
fun-levels in the mid-to-high 100’s. (We might fly kites too!!) Sign up here

Meet in front of Paresky at 4:00 PM, and return around 6:00 PM. Bring a
light layer or two, but the weather should be very nice. If you need any
gear, or have any questions at all, email Sam ([log in to unmask]).
