It is funny the stuff you remember from your childhood. Some of the stuff has so many layers that you just can’t pinpoint the best parts. Fitch Mountain is like that for me.

I want to invite you to a place that holds so many great memories for me and to share something that I have a passion for, my community. Over the next forty five days or so there will be a lot going on that is at the heart of our community and a chance for us to come together for the best parts of our lives, each other.

This next Sunday kicks off a season of fun, healthy things to do and a hike on Fitch Mountain is the best way to get this party started. I encourage you to join us at the Villa Chanticleer at 11:30 for a little BBQ (yes I will be cooking) some great chili, live music and a hike on our beloved mountain. 

I have spent fifty years hiking, biking, paddling and swimming on Fitch Mountain. It is a place we can all go to get away from our busy day to day lives. A place to get exercise and solace. A place for families to go and bond, learn about nature and teach each other about our dreams and aspirations.

I hope to see Y’all on the mountain soon.
