Outdoor enthusiast Melinda Dennis, the Nutrition Coordinator at the Celiac Center in Boston, has teamed up with Eastern Mountain Sports (EMS Trek) as a gluten-free consultant in order to take individuals with celiac disease and gluten-intolerance on travel adventures. You can be part of this first adventure in the White Mountains and show EMS Trek that we have a desire for trips like these that will cater to our dietary needs.

Here is your official invitation with more details about this gluten-free New Hampshire hiking adventure!

Is it just me or do the words "hiking" and "hot tub" together make you snicker too? For some reason I keep thinking about Oregon hot springs with naked hippies hanging out at them. What was the name of that place? Oh yeah, Rooster Rock. No worries- I made sure that bathing suits are mandatory at these New Hampshire hot tubs. Clothing is optional on the hike, but bathing suits are mandatory in the hot tub.

Lighten up! I was just kidding!

Seriously, this sounds like a lot of fun.There will be gluten-free goody bags, gluten-free pizza, a visit to Rafferty’s Pub, and you’ll have a respected gluten-free dietitian in your midst all weekend.

Have fun!
