They completed the 2 mile loop trail, which is part of the 763-acre forest in Meredith. There are seven popular trails of varying lengths from which to choose. Lots of wildlife, waterfalls and streams; depending upon the season. It’s just great to get outside in the winter to experience snowshoe/micro-spike hiking on these trails. If you are a current MWC member and would like details on upcoming hikes, let us know. It’s always an enjoyable and rewarding time.

Each month the Moultonborough Women’s Club chooses a local charity that could use our assistance and then we call upon our membership to help out to meet their needs. For the February meeting, we asked MWC members to bring in food staples to be donated to the the Lakes Region Food Pantry &amp; Thrift Shop because “No one should have an empty plate.” And, oh my, you brought the food staples! The heaping, overflowing grocery bags filled the table at the food pantry. Bob McSorley, of the LRFP, expressed deep appreciation for all the donations. The food will go to good use in serving the food needs of those in our local communities. Thank you all for your kind generosity.

It is a 1.7 mile loop trail in Meredith. Typically an easier trail, the recent snow on the ground coupled with the new snow falling brought on a few challenges. However, the peacefulness of getting into the woods on such a glorious winter day could not be beat. Take a look at the calendar for upcoming February hiking dates. If you are a MWC member and would like to be added to the MWC hiking group’s, let us know. You will then receive email updates on each hike.
