&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Walk, Talk, n' Picnic&lt;br&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Saturday, April 27th&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; 1pm - 3pm&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Enterprise South Nature Park&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;190 Still Hollow Loop Road&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Chattanooga, TN 3716&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Park in Lot #3 and meet near Gate 10 at 1:00pm.&amp;nbsp; GPS coordinates:&amp;nbsp; &lt;a href="https://www.google.com/maps/place/35%C2%B005'09.1%22N+85%C2%B006'57.6%22W/@35.0858655,-85.1185749,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d35.0858611!4d-85.116?entry=ttu" target="_blank"&gt;35°05'09.1"N 85°06'57.6"W&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;To get to Lot #3: Go straight at the stop sign near the visitor's center.&amp;nbsp; Drive 0.7 miles, and Lot #3 will be on the right.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;We will walk on the road until we reach the Hidden Lake Trail.&amp;nbsp; This is a medium walk with some ups and downs. We will walk about 0.75 miles each direction, for a total of 1.5 miles. We will walk at a leisurely, non-rushed pace. There are benches along the way for those who need a rest. Once we arrive at Hidden Lake we will stop for a picnic lunch.&amp;nbsp; At Hidden Lake, there are picnic tables, restrooms, two bench swings, and open space to lay on a blanket or throw a frisbee. We will stay at the lake for about 1 hour and then walk back.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Picnic:&amp;nbsp; Bring your own food and drink.&amp;nbsp; You will need to be prepared to carry it with you on the walk.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Helvetica" style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;Pets on leashes are welcome.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
