2 miles of walking through forests and past outdoor sculpture. The path is paved with some hills. We will also tour the gallery.

Come join us for something new --  a multi-dimensional experience involving art and architecture, nature and exercise. Located in Potomac, MD, Glenstone is a private museum with an extensive collection of modern art and sculpture described on the website as “a space where you can slow down, be in nature, and engage directly with art.” We'll walk the trail through fields and forests to see large and impressive sculptures and also visit the gallery pavilions. We’ll have an opportunity to see a new exhibit of the works of artist and activist Andrea Bowers, whose multi-media work interweaves ecological concerns with the fight for bodily autonomy. We’ll also take a break and lunch at the café or outdoor patio.

10 miles, 500" elevation on a paved road closed to cars with a few manageable hills. For Beginner Riders who want to ride with a group and begin to increase their riding distance. Leisurely pace (8 - 10 miles per hour).

Have you wanted to ride with a group but you weren't sure you were ready or that you could ride far enough? This is the ride for you! On this social-paced ride, you'll enjoy the beauty of Rock Creek Park as we ride an easy five miles out and five miles back on Beach Drive (approximately 1.25 hours of riding), which is now closed to traffic. Before we start, we'll go over guidance for riding in a group, basic bicycle maintenance and safety tips. (Note: this is not a "how-to-ride class.") At the mid-point of the ride, we'll take a break at Candy Cane City/Meadowbrook Stables. This is a no- drop ride, with a leader and a sweep and no one will be left behind.  Suitable for all bicycle types.

Join the WWO Virtual Book Club & Social!  Offered virtually so all can join, we gather quarterly to socialize and discuss a book around the theme of women in the outdoors. 

“Returning home for the first time in ten years, Sequoia Schmidt sets out to complete a 28 day solo cycle of New Zealand. This will be her first time home since the death of her father and brother in a tragic climbing accident. Changing Gears describes Sequoia's experiences with grief, loss and recovery, interwoven with adventures on the roads of New Zealand as she returns home to reconnect with Aotearoa and herself.”

Come join a community of women who share the outdoors in all ways possible!   The Zoom logon information will be provided to you in an email the day before the meeting.
