Continued on Page 4 Page 1 of 16 Have a Great Summer─OUTSIDE! Summer is almost officially here and that is the time most people think about being outside. We have a full line-up of hikes─local hikes like our Red Line the Blue Hills series, and of course the more challenging hikes up north in the “Whites” or out in the Berkshires. For those of you with young children (or grandchildren!), we just posted a series of Family Hikes. There are several paddling trips on the Cape and some exciting destination bicycle rides coming up. Check out our activities on our website. When you go on an AMC event this summer, why not ask a friend to come along? You do not have to be a member of AMC to participate in one of our events. Hopefully, your friends have a good time and will want to eventually join AMC, but membership is not necessary to go on our hikes, bike rides, and paddles. While we have several activities going on this summer, the Executive Board will be taking a brief break from our monthly Board meetings for the summer so we can Barry Young, all spend more time outside too. Also, the Breeze will not be published in July and AMCSEM Chapter Chair August, but please continue to send your articles and photos to the Breeze editor so everybody can read about “How I spent my summer!” come September, when we [email protected] publish again. This September we will once again return to the AMC Cold River Camp in Evans Notch, NH, for our Chapter Hut Weekend. The dates are Friday through Sunday, September 15-17, with an optional stay of Thursday night the 14th. To register, go to our activities database and see the detailed instructions. This is a popular event with several hikes of varying abilities, bike rides, and maybe a paddling event also. Don’t miss out as space is limited and usually sells out, so sign up soon. If after looking at all the summer trips and activities, you still can’t find something you like, send me an email at [email protected] and I’ll find a leader to plan a trip just for you. We have some new leaders coming on board after graduating from our Leadership Training class in April and they are anxious to take you on a trip! , See you all outside!

Continued from Page 1 Photo by Friendly Hiker The day brought muddy conditions with black flies, and near the summit the monorail was still in force with lots of snow and ice to contend with. We got a lovely blend of all seasons and a perfect bluebird day to spend quality time at the summit enjoying lunch and taking pictures. Thanks to Barry for supporting Christine, acting as leader, and Les, acting as co-lead on this hike; both are working on their certification as Level 2 hike leaders.
