|The Christian Singles Hikers are announcing our schedule for 2013, which is our seventeenth year of enjoying outdoor events together.  Thanks to everybody |

|who agreed to lead an event!  Come join us to share the nice weather, the beauty of the outdoors, and some great fellowship.  Please mark these down on |

|your calendar and come with us for some of our events: |

| |

|July * - Borderland State Park, Sharon, MA. Come enjoy a hike at one of the most historically significant tracts of publicly owned land in the |

|Commonwealth. On the grounds of a former estate, Borderland not only offers woodland trails and ponds, but also the original mansion. |

|     August * - Damage from Hurricane Sandy has closed almost half of the Newport Cliff Walk and it will be many more months until it is fixed, so we will |

|be relocating this hike. |

|     September * - Tully Lake, MA.  Those who have previously gone remember the great views we had from the top.  Furthermore, Doane's Falls are |

|beautiful.  You will want your fist fall hike to be at this scenic location. |

|     October * - The Berkshires, MA.  Once again, Becky has volunteered to lead another great hike in western MA.  This hike will be one of our two |

|rigorous hikes of the year and promises to have breathtaking views that will make it well worth the effort. |

|     November * - Blue Hills, MA. This large green oasis near Boston makes one forget how close the city is.  There a wide variety of plant and animal life|

|here, so come enjoy the beauty that God created. |

|* = to be determined |

|Hike n’ Praise (A Hiking Ministry of Victory Christian Church, Middlefield, CT) |

| |

|Hi All You Hikers, |

| |

|Just a reminder to mark your calenders for the up coming Hikes, hopefully the snow will melt so we can hit the trails and have a blessed time. OK here is a|

|good reason to make sure you go on the hike on April 27th at Lions Head, I know the hike is hard and steep but it's not that long and after the hike on the|

|way home we will stop at and trust me this place services some good food and you will be hungry after this hike.  |

|It's worth going on the hike just to get to eat at this place. Each person will be paying for their own food of course.  If you think 5 Guys is good this |

|place it better.. They have tables outside where we can all eat together hope to see you there... |

| |

|June 29th: A thru hike from Lions Head to Bear Mountain, this is an strenuous 8 mile hike and recommended for only fit experienced hikers.  The mountain |

|laurels will be in full bloom and smell and look beautiful. We will meet in the church parking lot to car pool at 7:30 AM |

|  |

|We will be stopping to get something to eat on the way home from this hike. |

| |

| |

|July 27th    Leatherman Cave Trail 151-599 Bidwell Hill Road, Watertown, CT 06795 |

|We will meet at the trail at 9 AM to begin the Hike. This is a Moderate Hike. About 2 mile out and back.. |

| |

|Thanks.. |
