Event details
Cold weather is no reason to stay indoors! So spend some time in the woods to celebrate the longest night of the year. As we enjoy our journey through the woods, we will look and listen for animals who are braving the cold winter night alongside us. After the hike, warm up fireside with some roasted marshmallows while we reflect on the year.
