The Monadnock Exchange Details
Come join your Uwharrie Trail Club members, resource managers and visitors for a day of fellowship and education.
Our morning will kick off with doughnuts, coffee, tea, etc. and an opportunity to meet and greet old and new friends.
The morning program will consist of two or three educational short sessions followed by our main program presenter. (A very special hiker)
Pizza lunch.
Three options await you after lunch. The UTC will have a club business meeting. This will be a very important meeting, and it’s hoped that all members will attend, and visitors are also welcome to attend. Those not wishing to attend the business meeting may choose to hike one of the park’s trails, drive to the top of Morrow Mountain to take in the views, visit the museum or the Kron House or leave for home.
Important information:
All registration must be in advance since there will be a very modest charge for this event, and state parks prohibit the exchange of monies at such events.
Volunteers: There will be a need for volunteer help to set up the room before the meeting and to clean up after the meeting. Your help with either of these chores would be greatly appreciated, just let me know when you register. The REGISTRATION DEADLINE is February 22nd. Download Registration Form
Registration, food and program all included in the $5.00 cost.
Looking forward to seeing you at The Monadnock Exchange.
