Snowshoe land trust trail
Presumpscot Regional Land Trust is hosting a family-friendly snowshoe nature walk at 10:30 a.m. Feb. 15 on the Hawkes Preserve trail at Great Falls Elementary School, off Sebago Lake Road.
“This will be a fun introduction to snowshoeing and a great chance to see the forest and the Presumpscot River in the winter,” Rachelle Curran Apse, land trust executive director, said in an announcement.
This is a great program to try snowshoeing with your family for the first time because WinterKids will be lending free snowshoes to anyone who doesn’t own a pair. We will plan to split into two groups (one for young families/kids and on for adults), so the program is appropriate for all ages.
This program is free, but registration is required because space is limited. To register, go to prlt.org/events.
