As we prepare for our Pioneer Trek activity to Martin’s Cove, Wyoming, scheduled for June 11–14, 2025, we have organized a series of events to enrich our understanding of our pioneer heritage. These gatherings are designed to prepare us both spiritually and physically for the journey ahead, fostering unity and deepening our appreciation for the legacy we honor.
Rick and Kristen Jorgensen, will serve as volunteer leaders for our upcoming Pioneer Trek.
Preparation Workshops: Starting in April, we will hold monthly workshops covering topics such as pioneer history, trail safety, and team-building activities. Dates and times will be announced soon.
Gear Check and Training Hike: In May, we may organize a training hike to help participants get accustomed to the terrain and ensure all gear is suitable for the Trek. Details to follow.
