Dear Fridayhikers,

Tomorrow's hike will be walking around the Shing Mun Reservoir, a gentle 3 hour walk.  If it rains, we will stay on the concrete road.

The forecast is for cloudy weather, with showers and occasional thunderstorms.  Please check the weather before you set out tomorrow morning.  If the thunderstorm signal or any of the heavy rainstorm signals is up by 8 am, the hike will be AUTOMATICALLY cancelled.

Please bring rain gear and water.

Meeting time:  9:15 am  (for those meeting at MTR)

Meeting place:  MTR Tsuen Wan Station Exit B

If you choose to go to Pineapple Dam by yourself, please leave a note on whatsapps.
