Friends Of Cherry Plain State Park To Host Winterlude Event

On Saturday, February 26, the Friends of Cherry Plain State Park (FCP), is hosting Winterlude, an outdoor Winter fun day.  The event will be based at the Cherry Plain State Park entrance on Miller Road from 10 am to 3 pm.
There will be a bonfire, hot chocolate, hot dogs and marshmallows for roasting. Depending on weather and interest, FCP will host snowshoe hikes, cross-country ski treks or simply a good long walk. An animal tracking and nature observation event will be featured. Members of the FCP will be on hand throughout the day to direct and guide small parties ready to head out into the various areas of the DEC’s Capital District Wildlife Management Area.
This is a free event.  Please come with your outdoor equipment, winter clothing gear and potluck items to share.  The Park will also have a snowshoe demonstration available for kids and adults.
FCP thanks the Town of Berlin for plowing a loop near the Park entrance to provide parking. However, as parking will be in short supply, everyone is encouraged to car-pool when possible. For further information or offers to help at the event, please call Dick Gibbs at 283-0155 (H) or 225-7371 (C) or Liz Wagner at Grafton Lakes State Park at 279-1155. Come on out and join other outdoor enthusiasts. to make your own fun!
