2nd Annual Czechoslovakian Vlciak Hike

It was a beautiful February day in Florida when we gathered for the 2nd Annual CSV Hike. This year’s adventure took us to Blue Spring State Park in Orange City, FL. Because of the cold snap the week before, the park’s famous manatees had moved into the warm spring waters, which meant we had to find an alternate way into the park—but it only added to the sense of adventure.

We set out on a four‑mile hike along one of the park’s side trails, enjoying the sunshine, the cool breeze, our dogs trotting happily beside us, and the great company of everyone who joined. It was the perfect mix of nature, conversation, and shared experience.

I hope even more of you can join us next year!
