Experience Nature and Creativity

Join CATS on Saturday, December 13th, at 10 a.m. for a Hike and Write Event!

  

Join CATS for an inspiring day outdoors with Triple Crown through-hiker and author Derick Lugo, as we celebrate the beauty of nature and the art of storytelling in partnership with Champlain Area Trails. We'll kick off the event with a scenic hike of around 2 miles along the DaCy Meadow Farm Trail, allowing you to immerse yourself in the tranquil surroundings and connect with fellow outdoor enthusiasts. 

 

After our hike, we'll gather at Snowfort Books for a unique writing session where you can reflect on your experiences and express your thoughts inspired by the trail. The writing session is optional; feel free to join just for the hike, just for the write, or both! Oboz Footwear will provide snacks and warm beverages to fuel our creativity.  Come and be a part of this special event that combines the serenity of the great outdoors with the joy of artistic expression. We can’t wait to see you there!
