Hiking and Outings Group

Carolyn Thom, Rachel Rose, Co-Chairs

We have expanded the Hiking Group to include outings as well. We have planned outings to the San Diego Botanic Gardens, to Temecula, to brunch at the Hotel Del Coronado, for shopping and lunch at the University Town Center in La Jolla, Mission San Antonio de Pala, Rancho Bernardo Winery, walking and breakfast in Carlsbad Village. We have jotted down lots of great places to go and we hope you all can join us.

An email will be sent to all members of the new Hiking and Outings Group a week before. You can put yourself on our email list by sending Rachel an email. In addition, everything will be announced in our AAUW Newsletter.

Generally we will meet the fourth Thursday of the month except for November and December when we will meet on the third Thursday of the month so that it does not interfere with Thanksgiving or Christmas.

You may want to consider carpooling.

The San Diego Botanic Garden in Encinitas. $12. Beautiful gardens. I have been meaning to go but never actually did it. Now I have my chance. They have a little cafe there, don’t know how functional it is, so perhaps bring a snack. I think allow maybe an hour or an hour and a half.
