Happy Earth Day! Two of us Ambassadors represented WTA today at the Sundaes Outside event organized by Golden Bricks. We were stationed at the eastern end of Dash Point Park Road.
With a break in the action, we hiked down to the beach via the Picnic Point Trail. It's only 5 minutes to the water. We explored the low tide areas and wandered back up to the event area via Heartbreak Hill. It's not so heartbreaking: just a steady uphill. Quite do-able. :-)
From the Golden Bricks website:
OUR GOAL? 10,000 BIPOC OUTDOORS
Why 10K? What we’re working toward is more than just a number goal.
"We want more BIPOC to see people who look like them in the outdoors. We want diversity in recreation to be the rule, not the exception. Historically, there have been social and institutional barriers that have disconnected many people of color from safely and comfortably getting outside. We want to counteract that. In aiming to get 10,000 BIPOC outside, we are hoping to change the narrative around who is and belongs outdoors."
