Thanks and Happy Holidays to everyone that came out for our annual Christmas Eve Run. The weather was wonderful, the trail conditions tip-top(ish), the post-run pot luck perfect, and the singing - something else! Extra thanks to those who participated in our biodegradable ornament contest and to Ramiro G. for taking pictures. 🎄

Thanks to everyone who came out for the club’s Summer BBQ yesterday! After cleaning up, we found this nice canvas bag. Does anyone know who it might belong to? 😂

Hello all, it's just 4 more days until the Summer BBQ! We're so excited to see everyone this Saturday, August 23rd, from noon to 4:00 PM at Almaden Lake Park.

We've got a great spread planned, but we want to make sure we have enough food for everyone. We know many of you are last-minute planners, so if you haven't done so already, then please take a moment to RSVP so we can get an accurate headcount!
To sweeten the deal, we've decided to have a raffle to give away some great club swag (like hats and tees), but we'll also be raffling off two free entries to our Quicksilver Trail Challenge on October 25th. You don't have to be present to win, but you do have to show up to enter the raffle. The entries are transferrable, so if you can't make it to the race, you can gift the "Challenge" to a friend!

If you've been on the fence, now's the perfect time to say "yes!" You can find the evite info in the email you should have received! If you can't find the email, then just shoot us a message.

See you Saturday!
Stuart, Laura, and Mandie

Watch your step runners! 🕷️👀

In the coming weeks, tens of thousands of tarantulas will come crawling out of their burrows across California for their annual mating season. Despite their reputation, their sting is usually mild, and they generally try to avoid contact with humans.

Thanks to everyone who braved the elements to come out, sing carols, and celebrate the holidays! Go ahead and keep all the mud that you brought back to your cars with you! :-)

Let’s go ahead and move Sunday’s run from Saratoga Quarry Park back to Quicksilver - Mockingbird. If there are trees down in Quarry, there aren’t many alternative trails. Quicksilver gives us some options if necessary.
