As Adventurous Catholics we enjoy fellowship sharing our faith journey while exploring God's creation. He sets a fascinating table to capture our attention inviting us to a deeper relationship with Jesus.

Weekly Activities
Sundays 2:30 - 6:00 pm Picnic & Paddle at Chester Frost SP Let's beat the heat! Come for the picnic or the paddle or both. If you don't have something to paddle you can use ours while we're resting on shore. There are usually tables at a good launch spot for kayaks just past the restrooms beyond the turnoff for the campground (do not go into the campground).

Mondays 8:00 - 9:30 am Stroll Along the Tennessee Riverwalk A walk anyone can do! We start the workweek with a 90 minute walk along the flat, well maintained walkway from Amnicola trailhead on Lost Mound to the Dam and back. Click here for a Google map of the meeting spot
Tuesdays 3:15 - 4:30 pm Feed the Homeless @ ChattFoundation If you can put food on a plate you can do this!!! This is a cafeteria style operation where our team plates the food and the staff of the facility handles everything else. If you are interested please email [email protected] for details.
Fridays 8:00 - 10:00 am Conditioning Hike at Racoon Mountain Hike on a woodland path that will get your cardio going. The route is three loops all of which intersect at the meeting spot so you can adjust the mileage as you feel is appropriate for you. The three loops are 2, 3 and 4 miles for a total of 9 miles. Using Google to navigate to the meeting spot can sometimes lead one astray. To get there follow Racoon Mountain Road PAST the turnoff for the Visitor Center. Continue by driving on the dam and TAKE THE FIRST road on the right (the road to Laurel Point). The parking area is a small paved lot about 1000 feet from the turnoff.
