SUMMARY:WE Dads Hike for Dads and Kids
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a hike on the Sentier de la Foret ancienne trail at Mont Wright on Saturday\, October 21 at 9am.  Dads\, father figures\, step dads or grandfathers are all invited to this great excursion outdoors with their little ones\, with Jarryd\, our WE Dads community animator. \nMeet in the parking lot at 9:00 a.m.  This is a popular place\, so hopefully the early start will allow everyone to get a parking spot!   The plan is to hike to the top and enjoy a picnic lunch together\, so be sure to bring along a healthy lunch for your family (please avoid nuts for those with allergies). \n \nOf special note \n\nMont Wright charges a fee of $7 per adult.  Children under 17 are free. There is a ticket machine at the entrance to the trails\, near the reception pavilion. You can pay by credit or debit (Visa\, Mastercard\, Interac).\n The trail we will be taking is called ‘Sentier de la Foret ancienne’.  It is a 4km loop.\nWe expect this outing to take 3.5-4 hours.  It will be a 2 hour hike to the top\, a half hour stop for lunch\, and then about an hour to come back down.\nThis is NOT a stroller friendly trail and can be quite steep in some parts.  Accompanying children will need to be great walkers and for little ones we recommend carrying them in a hiking backpack.\nBe sure to dress for the weather and pack a lunch\, snacks and water.\nSee this map for directions to get there.\n\nWho can attend \nThis particular event is open to all father figures and and kiddos! For more details please contact Jarryd Smith\, WE Dads Community Animator\, by email. \n\nAbout WE Dads\nGet connected with other guys raising kids in Quebec City!  \nCheck out our WE Dads or Family Matters programming to get connected with other father figures and their children.  Be sure to visit our WE Dads page or join our WE Dads Facebook page to connect with other guys and to see events happening in the community for dads.   Also\, feel free to reach out to our WE Dads Community Animator\, Jarryd\, directly and get connected with what is happening.  You can reach Jarryd by email.
