Hi Hiking Freethinkers,

Weather permitting, there will be a hike on Saturday July 31st and a different hike on Sunday August 1st. There will be five hikes from which to choose.

Hike 1) Spruce Mountain. This is a relatively easy 5 1/2 mile round trip hike with an elevation gain of a few hundred feet. A portion the hike to the top of Spruce Mountain is of moderate steepness, but almost everyone should be able to do this hike. I consider this to be a relatively easy hike. We would be carpooling from my house.

Hi Hiking Freethinkers,

What is it that our children are being taught about human sexuality in the public schools of Colorado Springs? Is "abstinence only" the predominate, or perhaps the only message? What about the sexuality of gay and lesbian students? Join us on August 25th as Duncan Forbes, the Education Program Manager of Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains, discusses these and other questions.
