Calendar

Get out of the house with other outdoor enthusiasts, and explore local public areas this winter. Hikes begin at 1:30 p.m. and are expected to last no more than two hours. The hikes may vary from good exercise to a social stroll and will end with snacks and beverages (bring your own). Cold, wind, snow, rain, and ice are all possible! Hikes will go on as long as the roads are safe to drive. These hikes are free, but registration is requested. Contact the Outdoor Alliance of Story County with questions at info@oasco.org.
