mark your calendar!

There's been a bit of email exchange this week regarding progress on June Marie's Mystical Mile. Mark your calendar! Keith (the parks guy... in the green shirt in the post below) said that it is looking very good for the bench and signs to be installed by the end of next week. He said that the materials are in the park now but that there have been human resource issues with folks being out with the flu.

Sooo... please mark your calendar for the first annual ride (or walk) of June Marie's Mystical Mile on Saturday, October 25. We're hoping to make this an annual gathering of June's family and friends on the fourth weekend of October each year.

The trailheads on either end of the mystical mile are in Windsor or Calhoun, Missouri. Although we don't have a precise agenda for 10/25 in place, please check back here for details if you are interested in joining us. Plans will most likely evolve into an early-to-mid afternoon gathering at the Calhoun trailhead with some sort of potluck picnic or box lunch, a ride/walk through the mystical mile, and lots of story telling!

There are a few bed and breakfasts in the area, as well as camping facilties and a small hotel, so if anyone is interested in making it a weekend outing, the option is certainly available. It could very easily be just a day trip, as well. Please consider coming out to share your stories... rain or shine! If it is raining, the picnic may be compromised and the bike ride would be a bit on the sloppy side... but we could still walk June's mile and head into Windsor to spend the afternoon together at the local cafe.

We hope to see you on October 25!
