Celebrate the Solstice with TLGV and Friends of Pachaug Forest

Celebrate the winter solstice with TLGV and the Friends of Pachaug Forest. We’ll start at the youth camping area with a 2.2 mile loop hike through the beautiful cedar swamp, into a varied landscape with large hardwood trees and white pines and then over to Edmonds Pond marsh where we have the chance to spot a bald eagle. The hike is mostly level and on dirt roads. We’ll end up back at the CCC Camp area where we’ll relax with a bonfire, hot cocoa and snacks. Participants are welcome to share their thoughts on the winter solstice, including poetry or prose. If you prefer not to hike, come for the campfire. Bring a chair for around the campfire. For more information, please contact Chief Ranger Bill Reid at Bill@tlgv.org or 860-774-3300.
