SHERBURNE – Thoughts of being outside in winter may make you want to stay inside, but it can be one of the most exciting times to enjoy nature. Snow creates a blank page upon which signs of animals can be clearly seen and the quietness of the season can be heard and felt deep within us. Don’’t hide inside. Celebrate! Rogers Environmental Education Center invites you to join in a day of winter festivities at its 30th annual Winter Living Celebration on Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Indoor activities provide opportunities to get warm. There are ongoing exhibits and activities as well as music and storytelling which occur at specific times. The celebration is free and fun for the whole family!

ACTIVITIES AND DEMONSTRATIONS:

Cross-country skis and snowshoes are designed to help you move over the snow with greater ease. If there is snow, both cross-country skis and snowshoes will be available to try. Once you get the hang of it, you may want to travel this way all the time!

Or, you may prefer a horse-drawn sleigh ride. Sit back and enjoy the scenery as a pair of horses takes you past a variety of habitats. Can you guess who lives where? Along the way, a naturalist will tell you a bit of history of the area and point out interesting things.
