Join BDAND and GutMonkey in Detroit Lakes, MN as we explore hiking trails together while hunting for trolls.

We know that it may be a long journey for some of you to travel to the area, so we have created a room block at Fairfield Inn & Suites Detroit Lakes so you can make a weekend out of it. No need to stay both nights, but it is an option for you. On Saturday night, Sanofi has graciously offered to provide an optional free dinner program near the hotel. We hope that you will join us!

Summary and Overview of the Program: The great outdoors is for everyone in this with this accessible invitation to a local nature spot. For individuals, friends, and families, Pathfinders events are specially crafted to bring together folks affected by all bleeding disorders.We invite families and folks from all walks of life to discover the beauty of the outdoors while forging lasting connections with others who understand the journey.
