Suzanne Hallberg (285-8632). Today is the first day of the new Wednesday hiking season and we start with Richmond’s crown jewel. Meet at 10:00 am at the Spotswood Rd. entrance parking lot (near Dogwood Dell) to enjoy this 4 mile hike around two lakes in Byrd Park and through Richmond’s loveliest park, Maymont. The heat should be less in September and the bears are always happy to see us. Optional lunch at a Carytown eatery.
