East Shore Outdoors
Sunday, August 6
As we go into summer, many of us want to get outside and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Pacific Northwest. You can do that, and contribute to building community at East Shore, by participating in walks and hikes organized by the East Shore Outdoors group. This group is essentially an email list where members can invite other members to join them on a walk or a hike. It may be as simple as an afternoon stroll around Bellevue Botanical gardens or along the East Lake Sammamish trail, or a more substantial hike in the mountains for several miles with some elevation gain. To join, just let Amanda Strombom know and she’ll add you to the Google group.
How to Attend
To get added to the email list, contact Amanda Strombom.
