You need to be able to hike up steeper elevations, however, for those unable to hike you have the option of driving up to the look out, but a truck would be the recommended vehicle of choice (bring a lawn chair if you like). We will share in a short devotional looking out over beautiful Centreville and Skye Glen. Bring water, bug spray, and wear proper footwear. Please note, event will be cancelled if weather is inclement. The hike will be up the MacLellan Road (the road right before John Murdoch Campbell’s) in Centreville. We will meet at the entrance to MacLellan Road at 9:45 a.m., head up to the look out by 10 a.m., then hold a brief devotional at the look out. The field is owned by Peter and Janine Wilson.
