Where is the NYC walk being held? What park:hiking trail?
HI there we don’t release this information publicly, however the information will be sent out to members that have been verified 2 days before the hike 🙂
Thank you Toyin, I had a similar question about sharing location prior to hike? I am in inner city NY and want to be able to make arrangements if it is out of the city.
You’re welcome, understandable. We send the information for the hike 2 days before the hike to give people enough time to make any travel plans. It also allows us to not publish any information publicly and allow for members to be verified. The information for this hike will be sent out on August 4th via email.
