2023 EO Mexico Exploration
2023-10-26 08:00 - 2023-11-01 17:00
Dive deep into the heart of Mexico during the 2023 EO Mexico Exploration. Feel the strong sense of pride, perseverance and gratitude of the Mexican people. Among many things that make the region’s people special, they celebrate with vibrant festivals, honor the living and the dead, fight passionately for their rights and spread color and kindness everywhere they go. The region is experiencing a cultural resurgence as the younger generations are reviving the indigenous traditions, seen as exotic and romantic.
In Oaxaca, ancient rituals have survived like nowhere else in Mexico, and yet modernity is ever-present, with chic hotels, foodie restaurants and grungy cocktail bars scattered across the city. While staying in the center of the city, we will learn some of the lessons of the past while weaving in modern Oaxaca. We will meet local designers and artists elevating the style of Oaxaca and young entrepreneurs who are reinventing their centuries old crafts. We’ll taste the fusion of old and new during dine arounds, at a mole tasting and al fresco at a modern, female owned agave farm.
Continuing on to Mérida, we’ll marvel at some of the best ruins and cenotes in the world. We’ll visit with some of the rural villagers, to cook, play and dance with them before dining in candle light at one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, Chichén Itzá. We’ll indulge in the warm sunshine while horseback riding, hiking and swimming. On our last day, we have a special treat, we’ll be joined in our final social by local EOers in their opening night of LACademy for an epic Day of the Dead party.
Travel with EO to discover how Mexicans honor the spirit of the indigenous people with a renewed commitment to ancient traditions.

MyEO: Mt. Tammany Hike
2023-09-09 08:00 - 11:00
Hey EONJ! Here’s another MyEO Event you’re not going to want to miss! Time to get your hike on! Join your MyEO Champion, Curt Bashford, and your fellow EO’ers (guests too!) for an exhilarating hike up Mt Tammany at the Delaware Water Gap, “Ranked Among The Most Beautiful In America”

You have seen it from I-80, that big steep mountain on your right as you approach the gap. But have you been to the top? Come see why Mount Tammany is one of the best hiking trails in New Jersey.
Mount Tammany is located in Worthington State Forest, along the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. Expect sweeping mountain and river landscapes atop Mount Tammany’s 1,526′ peak. You’ll be looking straight across to Pennsylvania!
What to expect: Our hike is a popular but challenging 3.6-mile loop on the red and blue dot trails that ends with wooden foot bridges over flowing creeks, a rushing cascade and a brief stint on the Appalachian Trail (AT). Spectacular in every season, this hike is steep but manageable. It is rated as hard but the reward is definitely worth the effort. It will come as no surprise that USA Today named this one of the 20 most awe inspiring hikes in America.
The 1.1-mile, 1200 ft of elevation gain hike to the top is steep and we will all be huffing and puffing but we will go slow and the views at the top are worth it. The 2.5-mile hike down sweeps around the back and is less steep but very rocky. Decent footwear and water bottle are a must.
