Join volunteer and master naturalist Kathy Gardiner for another fun-filled trek with your furry pal on Saturday, Nov. 20 – this time it’s the start of the BATONA Trail, off Stage Road in Bass River State Forest.

There are more trees than you can shake a stick at – and sticks to make your doggy joyful.

Meet at the trail head about a mile from the forest office at 9 a.m. Dogs must be on a leash at all times. Bring water for yourself and your dog. Those who are dog-less but like dogs can also tag along.

This is a 6-mile hike, so be prepared. Heavy rain cancels. Register by calling Bass River State Forest at 609-296-1114…
