About this event

Travel & Outdoor • Hiking

Join Voices of Flat River Pride and the Ionia County LGBTQIA+ Roundtable at Saul Lake Nature Preserve Trail on November 9th for an afternoon of connection, community, and enjoying the beauty of fall in Michigan.

We’ll begin our walk/hike through the park at 2:00 p.m. sharp, taking in the crisp autumn air and colorful trails together. Afterwards, we’ll gather near the parking area at 3:00 p.m. for a relaxed community picnic. Bring snacks to share or pack something just for yourself—it’s all about enjoying the day your way.

You’re welcome to join just for the hike, just the picnic, or both—whatever feels right for you. Come as you are, connect with others, and celebrate pride in nature this fall! 🍂
