Enjoy an (optional) educational guided snowshoe hike, big bonfires, warm refreshments, and a community reflection.As we get busy for the holiday season, it is good to take a moment to slow down, reflect on our year, and remember to spend time outside regardless of the chilly weather.
Bring your family and friends and enjoy an evening of warmth, reflection and fun!
