[Members] July outing-Cheltenham Badlands

[Mike Bailey]

Hello all

Just wanted to remind you of  the first club outing for the summer to the
Cheltenham Badlands just outside of Caledon on Saturday July 21st. It's
about 1 1/2 hour drive from Orillia. Thought we would spend about 3 hours
there then head home.

There are some trails through the woods, marsh area and forest area and of
the course the badlands, so there could be something for everyone to explore
even some wildflowers. Thinking outside the box you could bring some small
props and stage some shots. It's a pretty popular area for visitors and it
can get hot. Good hiking boots or shoes a hat and lots of water is a must.
We would leave at 8:00am , arrive 9:30 to get the best of morning light and
fewer people. We will leave the badlands around 12:30.  Bring a brown bag
lunch and we will find a shady spot to eat nearby before heading home.

 

Below are some Photo's I took while scoping out the place. Also attaching a
website you can explore. If you are interested in participating in this
outing please let me know by July 14. Email me directly with your Name,
Email address and Phone Number and whether you are able to take 2 or 3
people in your vehicle if needed. Parking is very limited as its along the
highway.  I will provide additional details to those participating and
arrange drivers.
