What did attendees say about 2025 Events?

“I wanted to send an extra thank you for organizing this. My son LOVED the dog sled ride. He was the first rider of the day. He even brought it up this morning that he got to ride on a dog sled yesterday. We enjoyed ourselves for a few hours doing different activities at this event. Events like this really make the winter so much more enjoyable.”

“[We loved] everything! So cool that all rentals were free. We loved the crafts, dog sled ride (and petting the dogs), snowshoeing, petting Foxy the snake, tasting the tea. So fun!!”

“Seeing the sled dogs (they were such good bois), snowshoeing, typewritten poetry, Tootsie’s Tea was amazing!, loved that there was food (mke bento was so tasty), the smores and bonfires. It was awesome that almost everything was free!”
