The kids from Urban Hike are at it again.  I went on the last Urban Hike and it was a blast!  This is a great, FREE activity and a chance to meet some of the coolest people in Pittsburgh.  So save some time in your Saturday morning for the Urban Hike.

Hike with us in Oakmont August 12th

Hike with us in Oakmont this Saturday, August 12th. Get a great view of the river, walk through some woods with a creepy name, hear about a mysterious bookshop, and see a frighteningly fascinating theater! Don’t be scared, though. We’re all in this together. Meet us at 10 am. Wear good walking shoes, and don’t forget that sunscreen and water. It’s August, you know.  Meet in Riverside Park near the Running Track.
