     ➢ Introduction of the Leadership Team
     ➢ Welcoming of new members and guests


GUEST INTRODUCTIONS/COMMENTS
    ➢Guest Speaker – Cameron Gillie began his photography career as a staff photographer at several daily newspapers. As a
photojournalist he photographed all aspects of life, everything from the extraordinary to the ordinary, learning to appreciate both equally. Photojournalism is like having a front row seat observing life as it unfolds. He explored life in Colorado while working for the Greeley Tribune and in Florida while working for the Naples Daily News. Leaving the newspaper business to freelance, he continued to follow his curiosity and explore new creative challenges. Cameron has been an exhibitor in art festivals and galleries around his new home in the Midwest. His art has taken on many forms over the years. His love of the outdoors inspires him to photograph wildlife and nature, while his fascination with the simplicity of homemade cameras brought him to pinhole photography. Cameron is an avid film photographer using analog vintage cameras. He develops and prints the images in a darkroom in his basement in Madison, Wisconsin. This diverse background in photojournalism and creative photography prepared him for his biggest project ever – hiking the Ice Age Trail and documenting the landscapes, communities, and people of Wisconsin in his book Around Wisco. Cameron enjoyed blending nature photography as well as capturing storytelling images of the interesting people he met along the way.

Waukesha/Milwaukee County Chapter: Wee Walkers – Hartbrook Park

About:

Hartland became Wisconsin’s first Ice Age Trail Community in 2015, and this walking club was formed to bring people–both adults and “Wee Walkers”–together to enjoy the trail, community, and each other. Start the New Year right by getting your kids out of the house and onto the Ice Age Trail with the Hartland Walking Club’s “Wee Walkers” program–monthly hikes designed especially for tykes! They’d love to have you join them for a walk!

The Walk:

Hartland Walking Club’s “Wee Walkers” invite you and your kids to continue their 2023 series. This year, they are on a mission to hike the ENTIRE Hartland Segment of the Ice Age Trail–out AND back!! They started at Centennial park in January and will head south each month in 2023 until the full segment has been! Anyone who accomplishes this goal with us will earn a free “Hartland Segment” pin! Starting at Hartbrook Park hikers will head south for an out and back hike on the Ice Age Trail. This hike will move at a “toddler’s pace,” as they stop to explore and enjoy the surroundings along the way. Check their Facebook page for updates.

Details:

This month, their out-and-back hike will total approximately 2 miles. They willtrek from Hartbrook Park to Nixon Park and back. This section of trail is stroller-friendly. A heavy-duty stroller is recommended in case there is residual snow, slush, and/or ice on the path. Hopefully some snow mountains will be found to climb and, for the second month in a row, hikers will get a bonus of not one but TWO playground stops! Please dress for the weather and consider bringing water and snacks. If conditions are unsafe we will cancel.
Walks are led by 5-year-old Simon, 3-year-old Ophelia, 1-year-old Rhea, and their mom, Christina, an Ice Age Trail volunteer (and kid at heart). All ages are welcome; kids must be accompanied by an adult. Well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome.

Christina Callies and the Hartland Recreation Department organized this hike. Register in advance (ensure that you receive notification in the event this hike is postponed or canceled) or simply show up at Hartbrook Park. There is no fee for this activity.

Location:

Meet at the parking lot at Hartbrook Park. You will find Christina and her kids layering up by their car or playing on the playground waiting for their hiking buddies to arrive!

Email comments or questions to your hike leader, Christina.
