Mother’s Day Pancake & Rhody Walk

  • Start date: 05/12/2024

  • Start time: 9:30 AM

Description:

The Entertainment and Bus Trips committees are co-sponsoring a Mother's Day Pancake Breakfast at the Lodge, followed by a hike on the Ribbon Trail to the Hendricks Park Rhododendron Garden. Mother's Day is the peak of blooms in the garden. The Friends of Hendricks Park will be available in the park to assist visitors.

We will be serving pancakes, syrup, coffee, orange juice, and other fixings from 9:30 to 11:00 a.m. Arrive any time. After breakfast, groups of hikers will set off on the Ribbon Trail for the Rhododendron Garden. For those unable to hike, we will carpool to the garden and drop off walkers to tour the garden and then be picked up. Or you may prefer to stay at the Lodge, work a jigsaw puzzle, play a game, or just converse with old friends. We expect to be done by 2:00 p.m.
