“ It was my first outing with meet up and I was pleased with the location. Although, I was not clear on the rules and unfortunately missed the "staying with the group part" My guest and I ventured on our own. but did manage to connect with the group at some point and apoligize to the leader. Next time I will know to follow directions better. thanks for putting this together, great idea, good job! ”

“ It was good but room for improvement. The organizer needs to make sure everyone is following him and should wait. He was much better when I did the last hike with him. ”

— Jacquie on Jun 9, 2007.
“ I like the laid-back attitude of the group - we're there to socialize and participate in an activity that is not only healthy but at some point during the hike, I was able to reflect on a few things I did and want to do in my life. I guess that's what happens when you give yourself a break from the hustle and bustle of our daily BUSY lives. ”

“ Maybe, the group could wait 5-10 minutes to let everyone pay for parking and get ready to go? ”
— Ronni Wasserman on Sep 23, 2007.
“ Folks seemed friendly enough but we had to introduce ourselves as no-one else took the initiative. Would have been nice to have organizer leave indicators at ALL points of potential confusion (to be fair, on rock arrow was left to help direct). No real socialization before the event and as we finished before everyone got back (still don't know how that happened--we took the full 6 mile course) we didn't have a chance to meet anyone afterwards. Funny thing was that we spend about 30 minutes in the parking lot with leaders from the Sierra Club. ”
