10 am - 1pm ; $3 car fee | park address: 19000 Jetton Road, Cornelius

We'll meet at WCUMC at 10am and carpool to Jetton Park in Cornelius. At the park we'll plan to walk two laps of the trail which is about 3 miles. Rating is easy as the trail in nearly flat. The trail provides great long distance water views of Lake Norman and is paved making the walking easy and safe. Leaders will have a cooler available to keep lunch foods chilled and we'll plan to enjoy lunch together at one of the many picnic areas in the park.

For anyone living closer to the park than WCUMC, you can simply meet at the park at 10:30am to join the walk.   We'll use the parking area just before the first left hand turn within sight of the lake....about 1/2 mile from the park entrance.

For information and questions email Rev. Mark Pitts.
