In February 2000, a few folks joined Jerry Lenski and Gloria
Norrid from the Memphis chapter and Suva Bastin and others from
the Clarksville chapter for a hike at Nathan Bedford Forrest
State Park. It was a glorious winter's day, with hardly a cloud
in the sky and the temperature near 60. Some (Craig Darroch and
Brian) went on shorter hikes of about 3 miles as each had children
in tow. Others (the power workout folks) hiked approximately
10 miles. There were wonderful views of the Tennessee river and
wooded hills. We were a little disappointed that some of the
trails seemed to use roadways as opposed to going cross county,
but that was just a minor distraction. Nothing could take away
from this unusually warm winter's day.
From this initial hike, efforts by Brian Brown, Jerry Lenski,
and Jim Clark helped get the Northwest Tennessee Chapter organized.
