Plus my mom is the President of the club and my dad is the Vice President. They are hosting the Rogue Valley Riches event in May 2013.

Miss Fit Adventures
http://www.missfitadventures.com/
(This is a website that includes all kinds of adventures but they also focus on hiking, relay walks, backpacking. They also offer boot camp training and firmly believe in training and being fit for any adventure. For this reason I am including this link on my website. See their April-Sept hiking schedule on the ATW calendar.)

AVA HAS A NEW CHALLENGE FOR 2013
AVA Centurion Challenge
The AVA Centurion Challenge rewards walkers who commit to walking 100 American Volkssport Association sanctioned walks in a calendar year. Other volkssport events -- bikes, swims, skis, also count. This challenge debuts in 2013 and can be earned yearly. AVA-sanctioned walks are 10 kilometers (6.2) miles in length, with some offering a shorter 5 kilometer (3.1 mile) option. From Aboutwalking.com
