Rise and shine! Get ready for Chisholm’s Doc “Moonlight” Graham Festival with a morning hike led by the Redhead Redfeet’s Lead Guide, Kari Kilen. This hearty adventure will help you work up an appetite so you can sample all the tastes of Chisholm during the five-day, city-wide festival. The hike takes place on Saturday, August 1 at 9:00am, and it meets at the Redhead MTB Park trailhead. 🚶🏾‍♂️‍➡️☀️

Psst—If you don’t know about the festival’s titular honoree, here’s a quick summary: Archibald Wright “Moonlight” Graham (1876-1965) was an American professional baseball player and physician. He is nationally known for the character based on him in the film Field of Dreams, but on the Iron Range, he is beloved for his 50 years of philanthropic medical service, especially in the Chisholm schools.

Important note: To participate in MDC-sponsored Redhead Redfeet hikes, you must sign a waiver! Waivers and pens will be handed out and collected at the trailhead.

By the way, don’t forget to pick up your “Hiking Passport” at MDC’s front desk before you head out! Use your Hiking Passport to track your hiked miles throughout the summer and earn stickers along the way. The more you hike, the greater your season-end rewards will be. All hikes in Redhead MTB Park can be logged for miles, and MDC-sponsored hikes count for double miles. 📝🎁

To learn more about the MDC Hiking Passport Program, contact Gary Kaunonen (MDC’s Education, Program, & Recreation Manager), or swing by the front desk and chat with a member of staff.
