We will meet next to the end of the first gravel parking lot to the left (just past the bridge and crosswalk) as you enter Camp Jordan from Ringgold Road. There is a paved path, but we'll venture off of it for part or most of the walk.
Please make sure everyone in your group is dressed in weather appropriate clothing. Kids should wear clothes that are okay to get dirty, wet, or otherwise messed up and consider bringing a spare set for afterward. We also recommend bringing water and some snacks.
All guardians must remain with and are responsible for their own children at all times. By attending this event, you accept all possible risks for yourself and children and acknowledge that facilitators and other members are not liable for any damages including but not limited to injuries, illnesses, lost or damaged property, etc.
