SEACA x LAPL x CNC Coastal Transit to Trails: Joy in the Outdoors

To better prepare for our trip, we are asking participants to take 5-10 mins to read the following information.

Meet up location: Corner of Ord St. & N. Hill St. near Chinatown Branch Library at 8:30am

Upon arrival, CNC staff will assist Chinatown youth to check-in and collect the Waiver & Photo Release Form. Once everyone is signed in, we will dive into an ice breaker. We will then board a bus and make our way to the coastal site in Santa Monica Mountains, which will take about an hour (depending on traffic). Please bring a mask to use during our bus ride to and from Chinatown Branch Library.

We expect the weather at Solstice Canyon to have plenty of sunshine with 73° during the day and 51° later on at sunset (subject to change), so layer up with thin breathable layers that can easily be removed or added (think  layers like in onions!). We will spend 8:30am- 5:00pm (about 8.5 hours) together, so make sure to bring enough water, a nice filling lunch, a backpack to carry your belongings, a sweater to use once temperatures lower, and curiosity for the coastal oaks. Please make sure to arrive at the corner of Ord and Hill St. near Chinatown Branch Library on time (5-10 mins early) because the bus will not wait; and in honor of people's time, we would love to follow our schedule accordingly.

Reminders: We will be hiking through Solstice Canyon, so make sure to wear comfortable shoes. We are expecting the day to have plenty of sunshine, so bring proper attire and/or products to protect your skin. 

COVID POLICY: Masks are required at all times while indoors or on the bus. Masks are encouraged at all times during the program.

If you need any access needs (ways that we can help you have a safe and enjoyable experience) or need to communicate with CNC staff about our Transit to Trails, please reach out to our Program Coordinator, Kya at  kya@communitynatureconnection.org AND ttt@communitynatureconnection.org.
