Thank you for joining us to hike our entire Chief Noonday Chapter of 119 miles in 2-to-6-mile increments on Saturday, June 1 to honor National Trail Day!
These “segments” can be completed by individuals or teams (groups), and multiple segments can be claimed by an individual or team. Hikes can be started at any time on June 1st and should be completed on June 1st before attending the 5:00pm celebration of this amazing collaborative feat (with our feet)!
If the section you want to hike on June 1st is already “claimed” in the signup (link below), you can still hike any NCT trail section to be part of this huge accomplishment and Trail Celebration.
Hikers are encouraged, but not required to seek donations for numbers of miles hiked. Below is a link to a sponsorship sheet.
Celebration at Ned’s at 5 PM at 15450 M-43, Hickory Corners, MI, (north end of Gull Lake). Food, prizes, and maps provided.
**Cash or check donations will also be accepted at the celebration.
