Winter Solstice Camp Fire and Lantern Walk
Join with the Linn Conservancy and the Union County Historical Society as we celebrate the coming of lengthening days.
The Linn Conservancy and the Union County Historical Society will host a Winter Solstice Camp Fire and Lantern Walk on Friday, December 20 from 5 pm to 7 pm at Dale’s Ridge Trail. The winter solstice marks the shortest day of the year, an event that people around the world have celebrated for thousands of years. The public is invited to come to our free, family-friendly event and welcome the lengthening days with a lantern walk, camp fire, singing, and community. We will have hot cocoa and roasting snacks for the campfire. Visitors are encouraged to bring their own mugs for cocoa, to reduce the use of disposable. Participants are also encouraged to bring a lantern to carry. In preparation for the event, join us to make lanterns at the Donald Heiter Community Center on Sunday, December 15 from 2 pm to 4 pm. Supplies will be available to create different types of lanterns
