Celebrate the first full moon of 2026 by hiking with volunteer naturalists in a park that usually closes at sunset. We’ll meet at the picnic shelter at 4:30 p.m., enjoy both the sunset and the moonrise, then meander on easy trails under the full moon. We’ll observe, talk about what we see, and maybe share poems or stories. Bring a headlamp, preferably with a red light, and layers for the weather. Registration required.
