Currently the group is training at Mount Doug Park for the months of May and June. July is Wild Card Month featuring four different locations shown on the schedule. August and September we move to Beaver Lake Park and October is another Wild Card Month.
Starting on May 6, our run venue is Prior Lake (Map) for the warmer months as the parking meters go in at the main parking lot of Thetis Lake Park on May 1. The hotter weather draws more park visitors and is the busier period for runners, hikers, swimmers and dog walkers.. Harriers' runs take place from Prior Lake every Saturday morning at 8:00 am for the next 5 months before we move back to Thetis Lake on October 7, 2017.
