> Bob Pickett, naturalist for the PATC, will lead Maryland federationists on 
> the Seneca Creek Greenway Trail and help us identify the plants and birds 
> we encounter as well as tell us some of the local history. The hike will 
> be a truly inclusive opportunity for the occasional hiker, the nature 
> lover, or those who just like to get a breath of fresh air from time to 
> time.
>
> Hikers will meet at 9:30 a.m. in the parking lot at the end of Reilys Lock 
> Road and the hike will commence promptly at 10:00 a.m. Parking is also 
> available at the end of our hike on Berryville Road and at the Berryville 
> Road Side Trail. Driving directions will be provided before the hike. 
> Hikers are encouraged to bring water and a lunch to enjoy on the trail. It

> getting muddy.
