Itinerary:

Potluck - held east of the Shaw Conference Center in Riverdale (address to be given later) - we will be inside & no BBQ available - sorry! There is a microwave though.
I will be supplying some dessert - sundaes with loads of toppings!

Hike - we will do an easy paced hike for about 1.5 hours & 6.2 km round trip heading west after the potluck to the Walterdale Bridge to view the waterfall at the High Level Bridge - good photo opportunities.
(If it's raining we won't go hiking, instead we'll play board games inside until 10:30pm then head over to watch the fireworks.)

Fireworks (they start around 11pm) - after our hike, we can get setup to watch the fireworks in Louise McKinney Park (just a 5 min walk west of the potluck location - there's a viewpoint for more photo opportunities.

Please note that I will supply paper plates, plastic cutlery, paper cups, & napkins.

After the hike / fireworks, I will need help cleaning the room that we are renting for the potluck.

Our actual event won't be starting until 5:30pm but for those who would like to come earlier to listen to live bands at Louise McKinney Park, I'm planning on heading over there around 2:30pm for a couple of hours or so - give me a call or text me!
