Quinte Curling Club volunteers and Kim Wilson, an Associate Curling Professional, will be ready to share their love and knowledge of curling on Saturday, November 23, 6-8 pm.  No admission fee, but you must bring clean running shoes.  All other equipment provided, including smiles.  Youth under 12 require a helmet.

Guided Hikes will be lead by Donna Kaye at various Quinte Conservation Areas on Mondays from 10am until 12pm.

Donna Kaye has recently retired from her career as a Forest & Nature School Practitioner and Early Childhood Educator. She lives in Cherry Valley, Prince Edward County, where she enjoys long walks in the woods, gardening, and exploring the beauty of the natural world. She is the co-author of a new nature-inspired children’s book titled ‘Move Along Huxley and Roscoe’. 

The walks will begin at 10am in the Conservation Area parking lot and will end at 12pm noon in the same location. See list below for dates and locations. Please bring everything you will need on the walk including water, sunscreen, bugspray, weather appropriate clothing, etc.

Washrooms are available in the parking lot at the beginning and end of the hike only. Walking routes will be determined on the day of the walk based on the group's speed and ability. 

We ask that you take nothing but pictures, and leave nothing but footprints.

This event is free and includes parking. Donations are kindly accepted and will be reinvested in stewardship, education and outreach.

Registration is required up to 2 hours prior to the walk. Event will take place rain or shine, but will be cancelled via email in the event of thunder and lightening.
