Winterfest blows in
While attendance at Moraine State Park drops a little during the cold months, its signature winter event always manages to draw people to the North Shore for a day of fun.
Natalie Simon, environmental education specialist at Moraine, said Winterfest helps show people the beauty of the park in the wintertime, especially when there is some snow covering the ground, trees and Lake Arthur.
“It's a wonderful time to showcase different aspects of nature or outdoor recreation,” Simon said,.“Plan for the spring or summer. Learn something new. Connect with someone.”
Winterfest will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 4, at the McDanel’s Boat Launch, where there will be activities from more than a dozen outdoor organizations, informational presentations, live music, and food and beverages on sale throughout the event.
