On Sunday, May 13, Mother’s Day, come out for a guided hike of Wolf Lake Forest – one of the last old growth red pine forests in the world! This is your chance to experience it for yourself, and find out what you can do to help protect this unique ecological treasure.

The hike will be led by Viki Mather and Franco Mariotti, who are both very knowledgeable about the forest.

Date:  Sunday, 13 May 2012  - please note that this is Mother’s Day
Time:  departure 9:30am (plan to be there 10-15 minutes early), travel time ~1.5 hours, hike ~ 2 – 3  hours, return before 4:00 p.m.
Cost:  suggested donation of $20 per person to cover the cost of the bus
What to bring:  Dress for the weather and for the woods.  Wear good shoes for hiking.  Bring water, a lunch, some snacks, and any other basics for your day pack  (e.g. sunscreen, small first aid kit, camera…).

Other information:  We will have a waiver to sign before we head out.  Around April 23, we will contact those people who have confirmed to ask that they bring in their donation for a ‘ticket’ for the bus.  This will contribute towards the cost of the bus, and will help ensure we know who is coming, so that we can give the opportunity to as many people as we can, and not leave empty seats.
We will send a last reminder a few days prior to the hike.
The bus will depart from a central (downtown) location accessible by transit.  A pick-up point in New Sudbury will also likely be provided.  Final details will be sent to you with further notices.
