Jan 30th in Castine

The 24 degree weather did not stop 30 DOC'ers from getting outside and enjoying a 5 mile hike in and around Castine.  After the hike we had lunch at a local pub. Thanks to Judy E. the hike leader.

Great Head and Sand Beach in ANP Nov 21st

November in Maine . . . You could not have asked for better weather to hike in and a better location to hike at. 

It's officially winter and the tourist are gone.  We had the whole park to ourselves.  To top it off after the hike, the hike leaders Trina and Judy had a tail gate party of goodies and hot cider. WOW.

All of this ( and a full year of similar outings) for only $5 per year.
Don't forget your membership dues are for the calendar year.
Jan 1st will cost you another $5 if you want to stay in the club.

Thanks to Trina and Judy for a most excellent outing

Hard to beat a deal like this.

Cedar Swamp Mountain Nov 14th

Another great day for the DOC in Acadia Nation Park.
Valerie and Christina lead another aprox 30 member group of DOC'ers on this hike.

Going away gathering for Terry Principe

At the end of November, Terry  is moving to Wisconsin.  There will be a gathering to say good bye to Terry on Sunday, November 17th at the home of Shirley E.  

Starting at 1 p.m. with a flat walk on a land preserve near by and then return to the house for dessert.  If you wish to come just for dessert, the walk should definitely be over by 3:00 p.m. if not earlier. 
 
Bring a dessert or beverage to share if you can

Anun Betty's Pond Nov 8th

After a rain delay and a brief warm up 14 DOC'ers and 3 dogs set of to circle Aunt Betty's pond. It was a cool and cloudy day but that did not dampen the spirit.
