Chandler High School’s Hiking Club is an excellent way for athletes and nature enthusiasts to get involved in our school community.
Despite starting with a small group of ten, the Hiking Club is rapidly expanding this year, offering more opportunities for new members to join and contribute.
Mr. Croswhite, the sponsor of the Hiking Club, is the perfect fit. He loves exercising, is friendly, and has a lot of confidence when hiking. The club leaders, Sofia Coria and Logan Chavez, are great people to contact with questions. They are always looking for new members, as hikes are much more fun when large groups are involved. “It’s fun to go on hikes with bigger groups, more people to talk to,” said Sofia. Although the club may be small for now, that doesn’t stop this club from enjoying the outdoors together.
The club members usually go hiking on Sunday mornings. On an average hike, they travel around two miles of hiking, sometimes more.
The Hiking Club, which runs from October to April, is open to all. Whether you’re a seasoned hiker or just starting out, you’re welcome to join their Sunday morning hikes. Overall, the hiking club is a fantastic source of exercise and an excellent opportunity to meet new people. As Mr. Croswhite said, “If my 65-year-old grandmother can hike, you can too!”
