“They” in this case is the Monument Community Partnership in Concord, CA. And this is what they did:

What a fantastic Thursday it was for staff that went on their very first Staff and Family Outing courtesy of Contra Costa County Spare the Air Resource Team, County Connection, and Transit and Trails. With walking shoes, backpacks, and water bottles in hand, staff members walked to the Concord BART station, traveled on BART to Lafayette, and then walked to the Reservoir. The goal of the outing was to strengthen personal bonds and encourage healthy, positive, recreational physical activities emphasizing team building and group interaction…mission accomplished and we had a great time doing it! One staff commented that they were surprised to find the beautiful Reservoir was only a 13 minute ride away on BART. Several of us have already made plans to head back to Lafayette in the near future to enjoy the same 2.7 mile walk around the Reservoir.

Have you used Transit & Trails to organize a group outing? We’d love to hear about it.
