President's Message
May 2025 Dear CCHC:
As we enter the month of May, the Club is looking into a couple of important endeavors that the board hopes will prove fruitful to our sustainability. We are looking at using “Meetup” as a way to invite hikers to our hikes with the intent of becoming new members. We will be intentional about attracting members that reflect who we are in terms of our age and descriptions of our hikes, but hopefully get “younger” people to join. We will also limit the number of prospective hikers. Furthermore, we are looking into participating in the September 14th Solano Avenue Stroll. In order to accomplish this task, the Club will need volunteers to man our booth sometime between 10:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M. We will need a canopy, table and chairs. We have a CCHC banner, our archive books of photos and CCHC brochures. We will be discussing the project at the May 9 Board Meeting. Please seriously consider helping the Club at the Solano Avenue Stroll. Thanks to everyone who keeps us strong through your generous volunteering. Be well, Stew Perlman ************************************ CCHC Board of Directors
The CCHC Board currently meets via Zoom on the second Friday of each month. CCHC members should contact Stew Perlman with any concerns so that they can be discussed at the meeting. The 2025 Board meeting dates are listed on the Board of Directors page.

Dear Members
A huge thank you to all the wonderful CCHC members who gave a donation to conservation with their membership. We couldn’t do as much as we do without you. Also, remember you can give to conservation anytime during the year. The more we have, the more we can give away. - Beryl Vonderheid for the Conservation Committee |
