Members live in Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, and other Central Yavapai County areas. Dues are $5 per household, annually. Membership is open to anyone interested.

Special Events & Announcements
Driver Reimbursement
Rates for riders were
revised as follows:
-
For prices of less than $2.50 per gallon, each rider will pay the driver 5 cents per mile.
-
For prices between $2.50 per gallon, and $3.00 per gallon, each rider will pay the driver 7 cents per mile.
-
For prices greater than $3.00 per gallon, each rider will pay the driver 10 cents per mile.
Mileage will no longer be included in the hike
schedule. Each driver will be responsible for recording the trip
distance.
These
changes apply to both scheduled Tues hikes and regular Thurs hikes.
Note: Because prices vary somewhat among stations, the Costco regular gas price is the
benchmark.Meeting Locations
We have been meeting for Fast Hikes at four locations:
- Frontier Village, Prescott
- Robert Road & 69, PV
- Iron King Trail, PV
- Safeway, Chino Valley
As of the January planning meeting, one more location is added:
