Monthly BN Hike: Kaena Point Hiking Trail POC: Amy Wolf delta_company_frg@yahoo.com

Saturday’ September 18th and we will meet at the hike en-

trance at 9:30am. If you would like to follow Amy Wolf there

please meet at battalion at 9am. The hike is not stroller friendly

so if you have a carrier you will need to use it. Also bring plenty

of water, sunscreen, bathing suit if you want to swim and a

snack in case you get hungry. Also there are no bathrooms, so

make sure you go before you get there. It is a moderate hike,

good for beginners and it is about 2.5 miles each way, for a total

of about 5 miles. Just as a precaution, if you drive to the hike

make sure you do not leave any valuables in your car. Although

It is a safe place we don't want anyone to leave anything impor-

tant in your cars while they are unattended. If you can carpool

that is always great but not necessary. We hope to see you there!
