Join us for a hike at Bothe State Park on Tuesday, August 18 at 9:00am led by Kerry Brackett!

Kerry began her fitness journey 41 years ago and started teaching in the 80's when the "aerobics craze" began - thanks to Jane Fonda! As the years went on and much research was done in the world of fitness, she learned that she loved sharing information that can help others get healthy. She is always inspired to learn all things regarding health & wellness and share with her participants. Kerry is also on the board at Napa State Parks. Thank you for all that you do, Kerry!

The Tripsters are home safe and sound with Croatia dreams on their minds. It was a wonderful journey we shared together. Experiencing Croatia through food, culture, history, music, it was a completely immersive experience. We will always treasure the bonds we made with each other during this trip, and enjoy these last photos until the next time.

As the capital of Slovenia, Ljubljana is known for its warm and lovely demeanor, largely contributed by its 40,000 strong university student population. The initial days of our visit have been marked by ideal weather conditions, though forecasts indicate the arrival of rain soon. Following a satisfying buffet breakfast, a group of six undertook an exploration of the city, which included visits to the local farmers market, a guided walk to the museum and residence of Joze Plecnik, the country's distinguished architect, enjoying local pizza, further explorations, and culminating in a dinner at a Michelin-starred restaurant with the full Collette tour group.
