FSA QUEER/TRANS FRIENDLY HIKES                2023 Sign-up
Queer/Trans Friendly Hikes is a monthly hiking program hosted by Flying Squirrel Adventures (FSA) to support queer/trans people in building connections to nature, themselves and their community. It’s an opportunity to meet new people, discover hiking trails, and have fun in the outdoors. 

We are excited to be relaunching our Queer/Trans Friendly Hike series after its originator, Jaya Paquette, moved away.  At last we have a new hike leader - Kim Rhymes - who is committed to hosting these events once a month. Thank you Kim!

The first hike will take place on May 13th and subsequent dates are: June 10, July 8, August 12, September 9, October 14 (i.e. 2nd Saturday of the month), from 9:30 - 11:30 am. The hike location will vary but will be centred in the Valley.  The first hike will be in Wolfville.

Our goal with these hikes is to build an inclusive space for connecting to ourselves, each other and nature. Our hikes will include group introductions where all will be welcome to share the name and the pronouns they’d like to use during the hike. We hope to create an environment where you can meet your needs for movement, discovery and enjoyment. 

By registering your interest here we can send you updates about the hike location and other preparatory details before each event.   

There is no formal fee for these hikes but if you have the means to contribute financially we suggest a donation of $10 per hike (or $50 for the 6-month series).  You can e-transfer your contribution to treasurer@blomidonnaturalists.ca and mention FSA Hikes in the subject or bring cash to the event.  

 Thank you!
