Goodbyes

11:30 am - 1:30 pm

Attire: Wear anything you like

In case you missed us the night before, or even if you didn't, come say goodbye! This is a loose and informal gathering, and meant for folks to flow in and out and enjoy the park. Lake Padden offers miles of walking trails, including off leash dog trails if you brought your pooch, a playground, and swimming. We encourage folks to take the 2.6 mile loop around the lake, it's a beautiful stroll and a Bellingham classic. We will be hanging out at the Rotary Shelter at Lake Padden with coffee, bubbly waters, and a snack. If you want to enjoy the park longer, feel free to bring a picnic lunch. The Rotary Shelter is located at the southeast end of Lake Padden. Please follow the link below for a detailed map. There are two shelters noted on this map, the Rotary Shelter is located further south on the map. https://cob.org/wp-content/uploads/Lake-Padden-Map-A.pdf
