Outings and Events

We host a variety of fun outings and informative events.  Sign up for our email notices.

As of March 2021, scheduled hikes will resume with pre-registration. Other events remain on hold until further notice due to the pandemic restrictions.

"Last Sunday" Hikes and Paddles

Hikes are scheduled for the last Sunday of September through June; most are easy to moderate in difficulty.  In July and August, we schedule paddles on local waters. 

Stewardship Work Parties

Our Stewardship Work Parties generally occur the third Saturday of the month from September through June - to help with trail and preserve boundary maintenance. Consider becoming a Preserve steward/monitor to keep an eye on a Preserve, check for boundary issues and, when necessary, complete light trail maintenance.

Swim at Anita's

Every Monday and Thursday, from 1:30 to 3:00, in the heated indoor swimming pool at Anita Ballek's home.  A donation to the EHLT is collected at the door and is most appreciated.

Annual Meeting

The Annual Meeting occurs in January and reviews the activities of the land trust, elects new board members, conducts other official business, and features interesting speakers and programs.  

Special Events

These events vary from year to year; most are open to the public, some are members-only.  We announce all events through email and some specific events, such as the annual meeting, by mail.
