Please wear closed-toed shoes and comfortable clothing you don't mind getting dirty. Recommend long pants and long sleeves. Sunscreen, snacks, hats, and layers are also great to have on hand in case the weather gets warm or cold! If weather conditions are hazardous, this event will be canceled and we will reach out to participants by email.
