President's Message
May 2024 Dear CCHC:
President's Message - May 2024 I hope that everyone is enjoying the pleasant spring weather as we enter into May. For those of you interested in joining the trip to Mammoth Mountain in September, you have just a few more days to make your decision. Remember, in order to qualify you have a better chance of going if you earn the points through volunteering which may be necessary to attend. I want to thank the hike leaders who have volunteered to lead our Thursday and Sunday hikes this month and through the next quarter. The club can certainly prosper from having more Sunday hike leaders if those hikes appeal to you. In addition, Suzy Mark has designed a creative and informative CCHC brochure that we can distribute to individuals who just might be interested in joining the club. A good number of us who did not know about the club were fortunate to run into hikers and were curious about who we are. Now, we will have brochures to give to them and perhaps they will ultimately become members. If you have not yet planted your summer vegetable garden, now is a good time to get started. Stay well and happy trails. Respectfully submitted by Stew Perlman |
