30 | OHCC LIVING | NOVEMBER 2019 | We walk and hike every two weeks on alternating Thursdays and Fridays. The walk is typically one and a half to two miles on relatively level terrain. The hike is usually three and a half to four and a half miles with 200 to 500 feet of elevation gain. After the hike we go to lunch together for socializing and discussion of hike/walk. On Oct. 8, we had our General Meeting, Election of Officers and Annual Picnic. There was a hike which made all who attended the picnic very hungry. There was plenty of food to satisfy the hunger and a good time was had by all. Results of the election will be discussed in next month's article. On Oct. 24, we hiked the Lower Santa Ynez Trail. On Nov. 8, we will hike Miramar Lake and Nov. 21, we hike Mission Trails-Oak Creek Canyon. The schedule and any updated information will be posted on the web at www.ohwh-club.com/walkers-hikers/schedule during the month. For each hike we meet at 8:30 am in the overflow parking lot by the Clubhouse and car pool to and from the hike. Passengers give the driver some cash for gas. Always bring water, a hat, sunscreen, and sturdy shoes. Walkers and Hikers Our next meeting will be held at our Club Party on Fri., Nov. 15.
