Start mini trek at 7:00 am at the Belmont chapel with registration, a light breakfast, and short devotional before boarding the bus to go to New Hampshire. Mini trek participants will receive back packs to carry their belongings on trek, so no additional bags or backpacks are needed. They will also receive a trek water pouch for hydration.

After trekkers arrive in New Hampshire, they will join a trek family, begin the handcart pull, enjoy pioneer games, and join the main trek company for the final handcart pull.
