Celebrate the outdoors this season by enjoying the annual Yule Log Event at the Dyken Pond Environmental Education Center on Sunday, December 9. Beginning at 1 pm the story of the Yule Log will be shared, followed by a search for the hidden Yule Log. Guests can then enjoy this informal day at the outdoor campfire or make holiday crafts for the season. There will also be a children’s scavenger hunt as well. People of all ages are encouraged to come out, and don’t forget to bring your sleds! Hot chocolate and light snacks will be provided; feel free to bring your own snacks to share.
Dyken Pond Center is a Rensselaer County Park open daily during daylight hours for cross country skiing, snowshoeing and ice fishing. Snowshoe rentals are available through the winter. Contact the Center at 658-2055 or dykenpond@fairpoint.net or visit our website at www.dykenpond.org for a complete schedule of our winter events.
