Sunday the 22nd. At the Howard County Conservancy.
It is the fall equinox this weekend. And, a harvest moon to boot.
There will be two hikes down to the campfires, taking advantage of the light of the moon. Cross your fingers that the weather cooperates.
From 5-7 pm, there is a family hike. Stories and songs, roasting marshmallows for s’mores over the fire, and hiking back in time to watch the sunset at 7:05pm.
For the adults, from 7:30-9:30pm, there will be a hike down to the campfire where volunteers will lead songs, tell some stories about the autumnal equinox, and you can also indulge in marshmallows and s’mores. Bring an acoustic instrument if you have one. Impromptu music making.
The cost of this event is $5/person or $10/family. The registration online closes 24 hours before the event.
Last year’s first twilight hike was a huge success, so preregister to guarantee a spot. Check the web site Sunday for an update if the weather doesn’t cooperate.
