    Happy Trails

    The Walking Club recently explored the Buck Gully Trail. It is an easier trail for more mobility levels, ensuring that the entire group could participate. The great outdoors in Southern California is a special place and members of the walking club rarely miss a chance to get outside, stretch their legs, and explore our beautiful surroundings.
