Calling all members! Join us for a “November to Re(Member)” on November 5th. We’re rolling out a grand member adventure that’s all about camaraderie, fun, and nature! The day kicks off at 10:00 AM with a hike at Eagle Rock Via East Topanga Fire Road. Revel in the picturesque views of downtown Los Angeles, Santa Monica Bay, the magnificent mountains, and Topanga Cyn Rd. As we wander through the trails - some sun-kissed, others shaded, and a few offering steep challenges - you’ll get a taste of nature’s best, especially as the sun dips. By midday, we’ll transition into a delightful picnic party. Think team sports like spikeball and football and lots of laughter with fellow members.
