On Saturday, February 5, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Mendon Ponds Park, West Lodge, we have our
first-ever Wellness Winterfest, in collaboration with the Young Lawyers Section of the MCBA. There will
be sledding, hiking, cross-country skiing (bring your own skis) and … snowshoeing! Thanks to REI, you
can rent snowshoes at cost and receive complimentary lessons. Because we need to give REI numbers in
advance, you will need to sign up by January 26. Lessons will begin at 10:15 a.m. on the dot. There will
be hot chocolate, coffee, other goodies, and so much fun! Families, children and friends are all welcome.
We just ask that you be vaccinated and have a mask with you for when you are in closer proximity to
others or in the cabin. Space is limited so please register.
