Whether you are a seasoned barefoot hiker, a beginner, or even if you've never hiked, come jo …

My kids and I like to find little adventures, including beach days, sledding hills, outdoor music, children's museums, hikes, boat rides, new playgrounds, picnics, camping, and generally anything that excites us, takes us somewhere new, or gives us a story to tell.

The goal of the group is adventuring, so we'll try ne …

Most hikes will be within a couple of hours drive from Worcester (there is another MeetUp for slower hikers that does hikes in White Mountains) but …
