BLK Beetles CRW Presents Nature Happenings: Community Hike & Trail Run

This month, we are taking our hike and trail run meetup to the West side of town! Join us for our Community Hike & Trail Run at Stephen F. Austin State Park on Saturday, November 16th! The trails are fairly EASY with little to no elevation gain - only a few small rollers along the course. The terrain is soft, scattered pine needles, some gravel, and soft clay. Below is an outline of the experience:

1. Welcome and movement warmup (start at 9:10am)
2. Community Hike (for those walking): 3 miles and Trail Run (mindfulness pace): 4-6 miles
3. Feel free to bring your own water bottle for the movement portion.
5. Cool down and community building after the movement portion of the experience.

Please note, there is a $5 state park entry fee that can be paid in advance online.

BLK Beetles Community Vibes

Zero Tolerance: We ALL came here to build fellowship and express our love the outdoors. With this said, we have ZERO tolerance policy towards harassment, in any form, discrimination, and hostility.

Wellness is Done Better Together: We will remain as a pack. This is not a race but an experience through nature. Be prepared to stop if huge gaps start forming.

Like any crew, if you see someone you never met, say hello and ask them how they are doing. We ALL have amazing stories! So take the time to meet a new crew member each time. Remember, this is YOUR community too. So let's grow and nurture a DOPE wellness community together!!

Respect for the Nature: No littering while on the trail.

Service Animals: We love our furry friends just as much as you do! Unfortunately, all non-service animals are not permitted.

Our Core Values: BLK Beetles is built on our four core values:

1. Tribute
2. Liberation
3. Wellbeing
4. xFuturism

Let each of your outdoor experiences empower, inspire, and give love to the community and the world.
