BLUE RIDGE WEEKEND - August 1-4, 2008: Attention, Blue Ridge campers! There’s still time to make reservations at the Lake Durant campground for our annual week-end of trail work, hiking, canoeing, and fireside fellowship and fun. We (Joe and Nina) have reserved site #58 (next to the one we had last year). The new rules don’t permit us to reserve sites for others, so you will have to make your own reservations online at www.ReserveAmerica.com. Plan to arrive Friday, August 1. Saturday will be devoted to Wilson Pond trail maintenance including blowdown clearance. We urge you to stay at least until Monday the 4th, to be able to enjoy a Sunday of activities (canoeing, more hiking, even loafing – your choice). We will be staying until Friday the 8th and would be delighted to have others stay as well. There are many hiking and canoe possibilities in the area; join us for some of our favorites or explore on your own. The Adirondack Museum at Blue Mountain Lake is almost within sight. Copies of Enjoying the Blue Ridge Wilderness are still available; for a copy, send a selfaddressed stamped envelope to Nina at P.O. Box 111, Franklin, NY 13775. For more information about this trip, call us at 829-8358. Joe and Nina Hart
