Boomers Trail Masters Hike (05/05/2026)

Tue, 05 May 2026 14:00:00 GMT

Join your fellow Boomers for a hike along a central section of the Hernando Trail.

We will meet in the parking area by Grove Park. We will head east from there as the trail is mostly level.

We will walk for a total of 2 - 3 miles along this trail. As this trail is not a loop, we will walk about 1/2 hour east, turn around and walk back. Our hikes are easy to moderate, and our pace is casual.

Map of the trail can be found at:

https://www.explorethevillage.com/golf-recreation/trails-rides

All Boomers members are welcome to come along! We do ask that you register so that we know who is coming and who we should notify if there is a weather delay. If there is a delay, you will receive an email one hour prior to the hike.

This event is exclusive to Boomers Rock members. Friendly dogs are welcome.

Your time with us will include handouts and things you can take home to read. You will also be guided on how to install apps on your phone or tablet to play against the computer or other people - practice on your own until we can meet again.

The Second hour will be for using what you learned in actual games against each other … but you can still ask questions while playing. There will be no pressure or cost - play at your pace.

This is a Boomer's Rock members only event, please wear your name tag. Invite your friends and if they aren't a member, get them to join!
