Summer Kick-off!

Special note: the MNC Annual Fund rolls on! Check it out HERE

Thanks to the Henry/Solow family this past weekend, MNC kicked off summer with a longstanding tradition: our hike, bike, and potluck. Two group met on Saturday morning, either hiking up Camel’s Hump or riding their bikes up to the top of App Gap from Hinesburg.

Here’s the hiking group getting ready to set off…

…and here are some speedy bikers

Of course, we had to get to the top of our respective climbs to earn the food back at the house…here are some photos from the endurance activities in action.

Thanks to immaculate timing, both the biking group and hiking group ended up returning to Hinesburg at about the same time. We met up with some club members who stopped in for just the potluck, so our numbers grew even more. Many were thankful for a dip in the pond, and everyone got to take in some great food and company. It’s looking like a great summer ahead!
