Write a commentLooking to decompress after a busy holiday season? Are you looking for an activity during the school break?
Or do you just love nature and want to explore the 150-acre nature preserve? Join educators on Tuesday, December 27th at 11:00 a.m. for the first guided snowshoe hike of the 2022-2023 season at the Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center! Educators will go over the basics of snowshoes, then the group will head right out! Bring your own snowshoes or borrow a pair from the facility. It is recommended to wear winter boots or winter shoes that are flat so they can easily be strapped in. Since CNY's weather can be unpredictable this time of year; if there is not enough snow to snowshoe, the group will go out for a winter hike and learn about winter ecology. Please dress appropriately for the weather!
This program is designed for nature lovers of all ages; anyone from individuals or families of 10 are encouraged to attend! All youth must be accompanied by an adult. The fee for these programs is only $4 per person, or $12 for a family. Children under the age of three are free! Preregistration is requested.
