Exploring Los Angeles on bike....

Burbank/Chandler Bike Path: Pack Walk **new meeting location**

**Make note of the new meeting location and please read entire description before you RSVP. All breeds welcome!** Expect to maintain tight proximity as we share the pedestrian lane of the bikeway with moderate traffic, including runners, children, strollers, and other dog walkers. Other distractions in the adjacent bike lanes will include passing fast-moving bikes, scooters, and skateboards. **REQUIREMENTS:** Participants must submit a member form and participant release of liability each year. **[Click here to submit one](https://forms.gle/GzcftLq1MyLZpSG87)**. If you don't recall completing one this year, complete one now. **RULES:** ***First rule of our pack walks is to BE SAFE so that everyone has fun!*** All participants must comply to ALL guidelines below or will be asked to leave the event. 1. Participants limited. **RSVP is required to hold a spot.** As soon as you know you cannot attend, cancel your reservation. We understand last-minute changes take place; however, if you don't show up more than two times you will be placed on the wait list for future events. 2. If you feel even slightly ill (including a headache, sniffles, minor fever or even an allergy), do not attend this event. Stay home for your health and safety of others. Remember to cancel your reservation. 3. Maintain a 6 foot distance from other participants not in your household. 4. Face mask/shield is optional. Please maintain a 6' distance from anyone choosing to wear a mask. **MEETING LOCATION:** Gather in the dirt area by the end of the railroad tracks on the east side of Mariposa St., just across the east end of the Chandler Bikeway. **PARKING:** Residential street parking on Mariposa St., Chandler Blvd, and the surrounding neighborhood. **WHAT TO BRING:** Water for you and your dog. We will do some mental exercises, so bring treats (or your dog’s dinner), or a toy for rewarding them. The path is well lit, but consider bringing lights as it will be dark by the end of our walk. **PACK WALK DISTANCE:** About 1.5 miles **TRAIL:** Paved street. **DIFFICULTY:** Easy **DISTRACTION LEVEL:** Medium - High: There may be periods of high traffic where we will need to share the road with oncoming and passing users of the pedestrian lane. There will also be bikes, scooters, roller skaters, skateboards, etc. passing in close proximity at higher speed, in their own dedicated lane. For nearly all of the route, there is plenty of room to step off the paved path in case you need to create extra buffer space. **LARPBO PACK WALK GUIDELINES:** #1 All dogs must be on a secure collar and leash. Dogs using e-collars must also be on a leash. Prong collars should be backed up with a carabiner. Short leashes are recommended (less than 6 feet). Retractable leashes and harnesses are not allowed as they provide little control. #2 PLEASE NO NOSE TO NOSE CONTACT (dog to dog that is). Always maintain a six-foot distance between dogs. There should be no dog-on-dog interaction. #3 Please bring doggie poo bags. #4 Make sure you bring water for you and your dog. #5 One dog per handler. No exceptions! #6 Share the road. Move to the right to let others pass. \*All breeds welcome. * There will be foot traffic, critters, and several other dogs. If your dog tends to be reactive to any of these distractions, please be EXTRA mindful and prepared. \*If you have additional questions, please read the full basic LARPBO rules of conduct, located at the bottom of [https://www.larpbo.org/faqs-4](https://www.larpbo.org/faqs-4). ### LARPBO Member and Participant Release of Liability In consideration of being allowed to participate in the event/class (“Event”) with LARPBO – Los Angeles Responsible Pit Bull Owners, Inc. the undersigned, acknowledges, appreciates, and agrees that: • I am an adult over the age of 18 (minors must have a parent or guardian over the age of 18 sign on their behalf) and I have read, fully complied with, and agree to be bound by all terms and conditions of LARPBO – Los Angeles Responsible Pit Bull Owners, Inc.

Join us! You must be able to pass the gym’s top rope belay or lead test (free)/have a Touchstone belay card before belaying on top rope or lead climbing, respectively. **First time to Cliffs of Id?** Get more info [here](https://touchstoneclimbing.com/cliffs-of-id/first-timers/). **Note to anyone who might be nervous about attending this event:** Climbing is a personal journey between you and the wall. Your climbing skills will not be judged. You will not be holding back your belay partner no matter your level of experience. This is a friendly, supportive event that is welcoming to climbers of all skill and experience levels. Whether this is your first time climbing or your 10,000th, you are welcome. We are a safe environment for all! Please don't hesitate to reach out to me (Sheila) via the in-app messenger at any time before, during, or after the event if you'd like to discuss any questions or concerns you may have about attending this event or about climbing in general. **Beginners:** If you've never climbed or belayed, please take the [Intro to Climbing](https://touchstone.rphq.com/cliffs/programs/intro-to-climbing-class?course=Q291cnNlOjQ0Y2UzMmMxMWZkMzJlZDk4NTZmZTBlYWY4ZjE4NGEz) class before attending this Meetup.

 If you've never done so, fill out the [Touchstone waiver](https://touchstone.rphq.com/cliffs/agreements/waiver) before arriving here You will not be allowed to climb before signing. **GYM LOCATION** Cliffs of Id
2537 South Fairfax Avenue, Culver City, CA 90232
(424) 543-3820 **PARKING** Limited free parking is available in front of the gym in its own lot but fills up quickly. A bigger lot (also free) is directly across the street on Fairfax, and there is metered and free street parking around the block. Please be aware if tandem parking, you will have to sign a log and be ready to move your car on notice. I recommend entering the gym lot from Fairfax, if there’s no parking go through it and turn right on Hines to look for street parking. Continue on and turn right on Washington. Still no luck? Go through the intersection and turn right onto Genesse to access the big lot, then walk to cross the street to the gym at Adams. Once you get checked in, turn left and go down the stairs. Look for the Meetup Figure 8 Fridays group flag! Hope this helps and I’m looking forward to climbing with you! —Sheila

This is a yearly tradition and no Halloween season is complete without a visit . Haunted house is about 2 blocks from park where we are parking . House opens at 7 . Check back closer to event as details can change . Also haunted house always appreciates donations that go to a local charity . If you wish to donate please do so . We also can check out few other houses in immediate area. Also just to make sure people understand this is not an amusement park grade haunted house but is usually enjoyable . Please have RSVP integrity . Don’t show up if you are not signed up and please sign off if you cant make it .
