Lake Estes is a beautiful gem right in the middle of town. Join us for a low-key walk around this four-mile, paved loop while enjoying the picturesque setting of the front range. This is also a prime opportunity to spot some elk or one of the many bald eagles who fish in the lake. The group meets on the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 9 a.m. (from September to May) next to the fireplace at the Visitor's Center. For those who prefer an easy stroll in a beautiful, convenient setting, this group is for you!
For more information, contact Joe Van Winkle (515-490-3475) or by email at WalkLake@estesparknewcomers.org.

Every month year-round on the 3rd Wednesday at 6:30 p.m., the members of Men’s Poker get together at someone’s home. A fellow can come as many times as he would like, but regular attendance isn’t required. The host player supplies food and some beer, and the other guys contribute $5.00 each to help defray the cost. Although poker is the excuse, getting together to chat and catch up is the real reason we meet each month. The normal size group is anywhere between six to fourteen players.
For more information, contact Danny Gigax (636-448-0276) or by email at Poker@estesparknewcomers.org.

The Estes Valley Land Trust has extended a special offer to Newcomers members who are also members of the Land Trust. They are sponsoring a free outing on July 12th, which includes a hike of the new Moose Meadow or Limber Pine trails at Hermit Park. A Larimer County official will be on hand to talk about the new trails and future trail development. The Land Trust is covering the entrance fee and the fee for their annual picnic that starts at 5:30pm.
You may recall that the Estes Valley Land Trust was the featured program at the Newcomers monthly meeting this last March. If you have subsequently joined the Land Trust (or would still like to, and join online), this is an opportunity to reserve a spot for a behind-the scenes hike of some of the beautiful open spaces of Hermit Park.
Jeffrey Boring, Executive Director of the Land Trust, commented "So, you hike for a few hours, get a behind-the-scenes tour of Hermit, have a hotdog and ice cream picnic with about hundred other EVLT members and watch a raptor program. All for joining the land trust. Pretty cool day!"
We’re limiting the hike to 12 people. Once I have a final list of participants, I’ll follow up with an email with all the details."
If you’re interested in this opportunity, please contact Jeffrey at jeffrey.boring@evlandtrust.org, to register for the event.
