Who doesn't enjoy a great Christmas story? The Little Off the Beaten Path Meet-up Group in Phoenix has an annual Christmas charity hike - this year clamouring 3.6 miles from South Mtn Park into Hidden Valley. 

One of the members was still aglow from a visit to Sedona. She stayed at the Sedona Real Inn & Suites and learned from the hotelier about the Red Rock Trail Fund. They are one of our local business that supports the Fund by offering guests an opportunity to make a donation on their registration card. The meet-up member's Trail Fund story inspired the group to make us the recipient of their charity collection! They sent their donation check to the manager of Sedona Real Inn, who forwarded it to us along with this fun photo.

Thank you Meet-up Santas for the dollars and the sweet surprise! Sedona Real Inn & Suites, we thank for your commitment to our trails!
