A quintessential experiencing, learning, and networking opportunity with all kinds of outdoor activity possibilities is the 17th Annual ADK Outdoor Expo to be held at Mendon Ponds Park on Saturday June 14, 2014 10:00AM-4:00PM.
Organized by the Adirondack Mountain Club – Genesee Valley Chapter (ADK-GVC) this day consists of hikes, bike rides, kayaking and canoeing, equipment trials & info, demos, learning workshops and presentations, and more, all with the outdoor enthusiast in mind. Beginner Orienteering, Geocaching, GPS selection & use, kayak selection & technique, personal gear & clothing, Backpacking 101, Camping essentials, Smart Phones for the outdoors, Family hiking with kids & curiosity, and much more are all on the schedule. In fact there are as many as 10 activities to choose from at one time and about 70 separate activities planned in the schedule, so pretty much guaranteed to be numerous opportunities of interest for all outdoors oriented folks.
With so many activities, and participation and presentation by so many hiking and outdoor related groups, outdoor equipment outfitters & retailers, municipal and service agencies alike, perhaps the toughest part will be choosing which opportunity you want to participate in over another. Further details can be gleaned from http://www.adk-gvc.org/Expo Oh, and did I forget to mention, it is all FREE? No admission to Mendon Ponds Park or to the ADK Expo. I should also mention that Gene will be there all day, and will be presenting info on invasives.
If you as a S/T hiker wish to volunteer for two hours at the ADK Expo, the organizers would greatly appreciate the offer. Of note: many hiking groups are participating, two of which are Victor Hiking Trails & Crescent Trail Assoc.
So, there you have it Springwater Trails hikers, some varying new opportunities and for sharing. One never knows what we can learn, and apply to the Springwater Trail and our S/T hiking group. Hope to see you on the trail along with newly acquired knowledge as well.

Join the Nature Conservancy on a very challenging 2-mile hike as they descend from one of the highest elevations in Hemlock Lake watershed to the eastern shore of Hemlock Lake. Hikers will get a sneak peek of the Conservancy’s upcoming newest trail system, learn about the history and ecology of the Finger Lakes Region and marvel at the local fall splendor.
Please note: This will be a very challenging hike, traveling over very steep terrain, with little to no maintained trail.
