Kick Off the season at our Annual Blackberry Festival on September 8th. Meet at the group campsite #1 of Ruckle Park at 12 noon – bring your lunch as well as a bowl and a spoon for some blackberry treats! If you wish, feel free to bring along any blackberry treats to share with the group. This would also be a good chance for you to pay your annual dues if you have not already done so.
Details of rambles, walks, and hikes in Ruckle earlier in the day can be found on our website: saltspringtnc.ca
