Acknowledgement of First Nations Traditional Lands

Prime Timers Hamilton meets upon the traditional territories of the Erie, Neutral, Huron-Wendat, Haudenosaunee and Mississaugas. This land is covered by the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, which was an agreement between the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabek to share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. We further acknowledge that this land is covered by the Between the Lakes Purchase, 1792, between the Crown and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation.

Our Activities

At Prime Timers Hamilton, we try to offer our members and friends a variety of activities - both active and more sedentary.  Here are some highlights of the activities we offer.

2023-05-27 - PTH Bike Ride & Tart Festiv

Bicycle Rides

Our cycling group does rides around Hamilton and other areas in southern Ontario.  The rides are usually on paved surfaces with little vehicle traffic.  Helmets are recommended.

Hikes

The hiking group takes on trails within greater Hamilton and occasionally in other areas.  All hikes are graded for difficulty based on the coordinator's experience.

Walking 

Walkie/Talkie affords participants the chance for some gentle walking and conversation with other members.  Usually the paths are paved for your safety.  Mall walks replace the outdoor walks during the winter.

Monthly Socials

Most months we get together at The Well in Hamilton for a speaker's presentation on topics of interest followed by the social time.
