Dean Meltzer completed her 7th century ride over the weekend! 🚴‍♀️

Her way of tackling long cycling distances includes staying hydrated, eating well, and keeping up with regular training. Time spent on the bike helps her feel ready to be her best as a colleague and leader.

The Hollywood sign 🤩, a bucket list trail for both local and tourist hikers alike, and it's been about a year since we made the trip!

Up to the summit (behind), looping around to the front and then down for a total of 8 miles.

Friday, we held our first Sip & Paint to decompress. 🎨❤️‍🩹

Nothing soothes like time with good company, catching up through laughter... aaand being a bit frantic about losing the step we're on... "When did we start using blue?!" 😬🥂😂

We had a blast!! Even added a little 💀💃 flare!

Not Us: Late to the trend... Cuz we were too busy turning them into badges!

An AI trend repurposed by our WB Director, Kevin Pacheco; for members who want to proudly show their unique selves!

We all have I.D. cards... but how well do they really "identify" you? 🤔

The weather delayed our Hiking Champs, but Sunday turned out to be a perfect rain date! 🌈

One of our largest groups yet met up for a 7.5 mile trek up Hike Brown Mountain Dam, fording streams and catching waterfall views! 😍

Can't thank Dr. Bianca Edison enough for her important perspective on how we experience bias or microaggression, and how to mitigate and combat instances of it. Starting with self awareness, self education, and knowing that effective allyship means upstanding to those infractions.

The view from the top was worth the hike! The DOR Hiking Crew conquered the Hollywood Hills on Sunday. What a gorgeous day to be out in nature. Stunning scenery, and some serious team bonding! 💪❤️
