Sleepy Hollow State Park to host series of free, winter programs

Winter is settling in, but there’s plenty of cold-weather fun planned at Sleepy Hollow State Park this December. Outreach coordinator Michelle Trowbridge will lead several free programs, open to participants of all ages, on the first three Saturdays of the month at 11 a.m. Programs include: 

Dec. 6: Geocaching & Cocoa

Join Michelle at the park’s east picnic area for some winter geocaching. After the expedition, participants are invited to warm up by the fire with hot cocoa. GPS units will be available for participants to borrow, free of charge.

Dec. 13: Nature Treasure Hunt & S’mores

Meet at the beach for a hunt of the treasures Mother Nature left in the winter. Afterward, come warm up by the fire and make a s’more.

Dec. 20: Bird Feeders & Cocoa
Learn how to make a bird feeder for feathered friends and enjoy the fire and some cocoa at the east picnic area. All birdhouse materials provided.
