2/22/2025 Buckeye Treat Trail with Central Chapter

2/22/2025 Buckeye Treat Trail with Central Chapter

So this started last year at Trailfest in Columbus. Randall noticed this new program they were doing around the sweet shops in Columbus. There was a close cluster in Columbus that could be reached in a short walk in german village. Randall, Matt, and Christina were the first group to do this and did the first day I think of trailfest. So myself and Krista though it would be a good idea to do this and share with the overall BTA as an outing for some fun in Columbus. We worked with Brian and due to timing of moving between meetup and eventbrite I thought it would be best to have this in the test Central eventbrite and asked Brian to post there. This was a popular event with 35 signups and about 20 that showed. A cold day shared with friends exploring Columbus. Would do it again in an instant. I ended up eating Lunch with Mary, Wally, Dave, and Victoria at Schmidt’s Sausage Haus.

Total 1.42mi

Bt sections complete 14
