Sunday, June 14th @ 10:30 a.m. - Northwest River Park

We will meet at the Virginia Beach Central Library Parking Lot at 10:30 am near the Virginia Beach Blvd side of the parking lot. We will then drive 30 minutes to Northwest River Park in Chesapeake. We will enjoy a 4-5 mile hike and should return to the library by 2:00 p.m. (at the ABSOLUTE latest).

We will follow several different trails that wind through the park and pass by many different species of plants such as the bald cypress tree. We will observe several historical spots, such as old moon shining stills (although I’ve yet to find one, maybe on this trip?). We will stop at about the half way point where the trail meets the Northwest River. It’s a gorgeous spot for a picnic lunch (so don’t forget to pack some goodies).

**Please be aware, this park does have a tendency to be muddy, so boots are a good idea!**

Can’t wait to hit the trail with everyone! It’s GREAT park with easy well marked trails.
