Leaving Blog

Since there is not much happening here, and this blog has become irrelevant to me, I am removing myself as one of the administrators and I am also doing away with the 2K Adventure Club Calendar.

2K's 1st Annual Social - Kick off the Season - Plan your Adventures

A REMINDER THAT TOMORROW IS THE 2K SOCIAL - HELP US KICK OFF THE SEASON.


Come join us on Friday April 29th at 2K Adventure Gear in Richmond, Illinois at 5:30pm to 9:30pm.

We will have food and drinks, movies and pictures from last year plus show what we have been up to this year and what is to come.

Both the Store and the Club will have event sign up sheets for events that are scheduled for this season. COME SEE WHAT WE HAVE PLANNED.

Rick has expanded his inventory with more kayak lines and accessories, clothing, and hiking gear. And there is more to come.

Also, 2K Adventure Gear is now one year old and going strong, so let's use this occasion to celebrate and congratulate! Rick, Christina, Mathieu, and Megan have done an outstanding job creating what I feel is home away from home. (I live on the 2nd floor in a hammock)

Tell a friend or two...

Please RSVP to: 2kadventureclub@gmail.com

Parking may be tricky, because of a neighboring community function, so factor that into your parking plans.

Kettle Moraine Recap


Some members of the club went to hike the Ice Age Trail in the Kettle Moraine Southern Unit, Wis. We had a blast. Hiked northbound four and a half miles from hwy 12 on Friday, April 8. On Saturday we awoke and hiked twenty miles to Shelter #1. It was a long day but well worth the effort. On Sunday we hiked out. Looking forward to the next backpacking trip.
