Sorry to those who visited our site in the past few days and saw a generic portal advertising SB real estate. The domain expired but we’re back in action. If you see any problems or tried to email one of us @ sbrotaract.com and do not hear a response in a reasonable amount of time, just resend.

Shortest Night Hike Yet – Wednesday

Published on February 9, 2009 in President's Picks and Social Events. 0 Comments Tags: , , .

CANCELLED DUE TO WEATHER.

Ready for a hike? It’s an easy one with a great payoff!

We’ll meet at the Panda Express in the La Cumbre Plaza shopping center at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 11.

From there, we’ll carpool up to the Knapps Castle trailhead. Note: We’re not taking Snyder Trail (which is long). We’re starting from East Camino Cielo, which means that the hike is about 1 mile round trip. 

Knapps Castle is some cool ruins. It will be a nice place to relax in the moonlight and maybe make friends with people who are ready to try their first night hike with us. 

Dress warmly. Bring water and possibly a snack. Wear sensible shoes and bring a flashlight or headlamp. Friends welcome.

Please RSVP to Liz with your phone number at liz@sbrotaract.com. See you at Panda Express!
