The Golden 50: The Winter Hike & Dine Experience is a milestone celebration marking our 50th official Hike & Dine adventure, designed to bring together everything our community loves... scenic movement, seasonal fun, great food, and meaningful connection.
On Sunday, February 8th, we’ll head to Lansing, MI for a thoughtfully paced winter experience that’s engaging without being overwhelming.
We’ll begin the day with a short, scenic winter hike, offering peaceful views and a relaxed pace that allows time for conversation, photos, and enjoying the outdoors together. After the hike, we’ll shift gears and add some excitement with snow tubing at one of the top tubing hills in the Lower Peninsula, a fun, low-effort way to embrace winter and share some laughs as a group.
We’ll wrap up with late breakfast/lunch at a vibrant food hall, giving everyone the freedom to choose from a variety of food options while we gather indoors to warm up and connect. During this time, we’ll also host group acknowledgments and community shoutouts, along with the presentation of special prizes that were originally planned for our year-end gala but were delayed due to mail delivery issues, making this milestone even more special.
