What Victoria is saying about this Meetup Group

I have never seen a group of 40+ people together on a hike, would have never thought it existed in Philly. It's a sure sign of how well planned the hike routes are & how committed and well organized Sidney is with running this group. He schedules hikes to fit most schedules & schedules many throughout the month. Had a great time. I always look forward to the weekends for these hikes.

Victoria,
Hello, welcome to our little group. I am super thrilled about s this study group, I have been wanting to find a group like this for a while, the closest was in Philly, so I decided to start one. Our first meeting was on Sunday, and even though it was really small, it was very productive. I am sure the group will grow into a nice size eventually. I am actively working on bringing someone into the group to help us with pronunciation. Hope to see you at our next meeting!

Hiking Around Philly is different from most hiking groups because we hike (and sometimes bicycle) off the beaten path. We hike in the woods and the city. We go places that won't be found on any hiker's map. The events are usually within a 1.5 hour drive from Philly, though we sometimes visit NYC or the Jersey shore. Once each year we go to Acadia National Park in Maine, one of the best places in the world to hike. We sometimes participate in a conservation work party in a area we hike.

And, we do a lot more than hike; we explore. Whether it be a trail in a park or a back alley in the city, we always look for neat things, and we find them. Did you notice the 25 foot dinosaur made from pink suntan lotion bottles? We take time to appreciate a beautiful tree, a low flying eagle, or a hickory horned devil (look it up). We visit museums, historic houses, bakeries, battleships, and other neat places. We appreciate architecture, sculptures (Philly has more than any other US city, yea!), or whatever we find near our path. After a hike we often eat at a special place. And, we rarely repeat ourselves.

Fearless lost explorers and sidney (fleas) are curious. This group is not for people content to only go down one trail and up another, nor for people happy to take the same or beaten path. This group may also be different because only one person leads hikes, gets folks lost, and does the bulk of administrative work. So, please read on to make sure you want to be a proud flea.
