Date: February 22nd 2016
Hey there folks,
I need someone to staff a table at Cascade Winter Ruck on Saturday February 27th
it is hosted by AldaWest. This is not a way to get into the “Ruck” free, I really need someone to talk to prospective thru-hikers about giving back to the trails that they are going to be out hiking! So, if you are interested in talking up the Mt. Hood
Chapter and PCTA, then please hit reply and I’ll get you set up with all the materials that you will need to do this.
But if you are interested in going to the Cascade Winter Ruck given by AldaWest, you should check out their website, the link is below in the event
schedule.
Thank you,
Tammy

Volunteer Coordinator
