MAX hikers: about 12 (+ or -)

I set the Maximum Group Size to 4, because I can take 3 passengers, but this event can accommodate about 12 hikers if more drivers register or hikers meet at the event trail head.

The trail will be a mix of gravel and dirt paths through forests and meadow areas near the Humber River as it flows south through Kleinburg and the Kortright Centre.
While mostly flat, there will be a few good hills to climb.
We'll look for a place to stop for a lunch break on the trail, unsure where that would be.

DRIVERS, WHEN YOU SIGN UP, PLEASE ANSWER THE CARPOOL QUESTION REGARDING THE # OF PASSENGERS YOU CAN TAKE IN YOUR CAR!!!
Members on the waiting list who are willing to drive may get priority.
Passengers will be added as drivers become available.
Alternatively, you can meet us at the hike starting location, but parking is limited.
There is a washroom at the Tims where we will start the hike, as well as 1 more on the hike.
