Description
All LGBTQ2SIA+ peeps and allies are welcome! Novice hikers, too.
With most Hamilton Pride activities on the Friday & Saturday, we''ll head out on late morning(11 a.m.) Rainbow Hike on Sunday, Aug. 10. — followed by a (TOTALLY OPTIONAL) opportunity to cheer on your favourite 2SLGBTQIA baseball team.
We''ll aim for a 2-hour waterfront walk (as far as Princess Point to see the swans) and then head over to Eastwood Park to a catch a Steel City Inclusive Softball Association game—it's Hamilton’s hugely popular 2SLGBTQIA+ slo-pitch league.
Meet at the benches in front of West Harbour GO Station, close to the McNab street entrance at 10:45 a.m. for an 11 a.m. start. We'll hike a mix of paved and dirt paths. Then it's an easy 20-minute walk to the ball park.
Everyone gets a complimentary Bruce Trail Rainbow Badge or sticker. This urban hike is a great way to learn more about our queer-led, queer-friendly Bruce Trail hikes.
Bring water, energizing snacks/lunch, sunscreen. Sturdy shoes are recommended. We'll be mostly on paved paths.
