The Koala Club Comes to Boulder City

The CELEBRITIES in Boulder City welcomed the Koala Club from Germany to our small town of Boulder City.  Comments were a plenty just didn't understand them as they were all spoken in German.  Gathering from their smiles I am sure they had a great time on our Lake Mead and Boulder City YRE walks.

10 Items to Bring With You on a Las Vegas Volksmarch

Volksmarching in Las Vegas is a unique experience and often quite different than volksmarching in other locales.  Here's ten items you will want to bring with you on a LVHRS volksmarch:

1. Water (it's a desert out here and you can become dehydrated quickly)
2. Sunscreen (it is also sunny here nearly every day of the year)
3. A hat (ditto)
4. Sunglasses (although some of our walks will take you through casinos and other buildings, as mentioned above, it is usually sunny in Las Vegas)
5. Your walk cards (event and distance cards are not available in the walk boxes)
6. A camera (most of our walks take place in very photogenic areas)
7. A cell phone (again, many of our walks take place in well-populated areas but you should still carry a cell phone for emergencies)
8. Hat, gloves, jacket (if you walk in the winter months be aware that while it may be sunny, it can also be downright cold or even freezing so dress accordingly)
9. ID and cash (ID for obvious reasons and cash because we tend to walk through a number of casinos and interesting shopping areas)
10. A purse/daypack/waistpack (to carry the above mentioned items in)

South Strip Walk

It was another beautiful day for a walk.  The sun was out and a cool breeze could be felt by the waterfalls.  It is great to live in Vegas.

Photos From Our Lake Mead Walk

It was a beautiful day for a volksmarch today!  We did the Lake Mead volksmarch which took us around Lake Mead, through the old railroad tunnels, to the bridge overlooking the Hoover Dam, then down to the dam itself.  We also came across Caveman runners, a triathlon in progress, and mountain goats!

Join us at Lake Mead this Saturday!

Our March 2nd volksmarch will be at Lake Mead so be sure and join us for this walk tomorrow!  The weather will be beautiful, it is a fascinating walk, and of course we are a fun group of people to walk with!  We will leave the Hacienda Hotel in Boulder City at 9am.  For more information, check here.
