South Coast Striders release – Make Your Healthy Activities Count! >>>> First Day Hikes Return! Coos County Odyssey 2022 is a virtual fitness challenge that ‘virtually’ tracks you as your earned miles take you 216 miles through Coos County. Each time you complete an exercise activity such as walking, running, biking, swimming, yoga, dance, paddling, golf, and more, you will advance along the route map, starting on New Year’s Day at Sunset Bay, and ending at Coos Health & Wellness by the end of April. Proceeds benefit the Coos County Women, Infants, & Children (WIC) program. When you sign up, join the South Coast Striders team (or form your own team). First Day Hikes Return to Oregon State Parks – There were no First Day Hikes last year, but they have returned to our parks. Nearby First Day Hikes will be offered at: Bullards Beach State Park (1:00 Meet at the amphitheater); Jessie Honeyman State Park (10:00 Meet at Cleawox Lodge).
