SUMMARY:Recharge your hiking
DESCRIPTION:February 18th is National Battery Day. Participants are invited to bring Double AA and Triple AAA batteries for residents at Nightingale Supported Housing to power their flashlights\, headlamps and other devices.”   We will walk on the bike path to the Nightingale Hosted Shelter at 34th and Hilyard to donate the batteries. Joella has arranged a  tour.  Then back to 26th and University to the Masonic Cemetery to find the monument for Karl Kordesch\, inventor of the alkaline battery.  There could be snowdrop flowers in bloom.  People can head back to their cars or continue on up to the Bog and the Lodge and beyond.   Possibly a bakery stop would help recharge!   We will try to forecast where the bathroom stops might be.  Mileage is an estimate.   UPDATE: I’ll have copies of an article about Kordesch.
