DESERT SURVIVORS
Ground Hog Day Party
Another new beginning reigns supreme
In Benton's chilled air as rising steam
Moves mistily upward toward the Whites' soaring crest
Inspiring Survivors to do their best.
We make good our vow to protect desert lands
From uncaring knaves who would tear desert sands.
Undaunted and trusting we move toward our goal,
As the desert's sweet silence seeps into our soul.
We'll gather for a potluck dinner, slides, and conversation on this winter night as the desert turns toward Spring. Meet your fellow Survivors and plan trips for the future. Our Spring 2007 Trip Schedule will be ready, loaded with new trips for a new hiking season. Join your fellow members at our annual Farewell-to-Winter/Hello-to-Spring celebration.
