Join ACT’s ‘Shoes & Brews^SM in Bethlehem Saturday March 9th

BETHLEHEM– You won’t want to miss the Ammonoosuc Conservation Trust’s next ‘Shoes & Brews^SM event on Saturday March 9^th. Set aside the afternoon to discover some of Bethlehem’s downtown trails, then enjoy some social time at Rek’-lis Brewing.

The ‘Shoes will start at 2 p.m. in downtown Bethlehem. We’ll move at a slow to moderate pace along some of the Bethlehem Trails Association (BTA) in-town pathways.  Find a new quiet place to walk on easy wooded trails as we snake through the woods on mostly flat single track and learn about how these trails were established as well as future plans for Bethlehem’s trail system.  Ian Dowling of Rek’-lis Brewing and the BTA board will help lead alongside ACT Outreach Director Gal Potashnick.

Afterwards, the group will head to Rek’-lis for the Brews portion from approximately 4 – 5:30 p.m. Even if you can’t make the ‘Shoes, you’re welcome to join us for the Brews.

Join us at Rek’-lis to enjoy a beverage, catch up with old friends, and make some new ones. Everyone is welcome and free to come and go as needed. Light snacks will be provided by event host and sponsor Rek’-lis Brewing. All are encouraged to stay awhile to enjoy the full menu of delicious fare and local brews.

Registration for the ‘Shoes is required – for the safety and enjoyment of the group we must limit the walk to 20 participants – so please be sure to pre-register ASAP. Registration closes at noon on Friday, March 8^th. Once registered, an email will be sent with details of meeting location. Rek’-lis is generously sponsoring the event and the Bethlehem Conservation Commission is co-hosting all of our events for the whole month of March.

Registration for the Brews is not required but is very much appreciated to help organizers plan accordingly. Not able to make it to both portions? You can join either or both. If you’re only coming to the brews, bring a friend(s)!

With so much support, this ‘Shoes & Brews^SM is bound to be a blast for all who can make it and is a great way to get outside, meet new friends, and enjoy local fare!  Kids are always encouraged to come along and dogs are welcome!
