All donations received will go towards a scholarship fund to offer fee reductions for families on Earth Day weekend. Come experience what forest therapy can give you and your loved ones in 2020!

The Details
Event Date: New Years Day | January 1, 2020
Duration: 1-3pm
Location: Hoyt Park | 3902 Regent St, Madison, WI 53705
Meeting Spot: Playground adjacent to the parking lot
Please arrive 10-15 minutes prior to the walk to ensure we start and end on time for all! Let "nature be the healer" while Kate & Moira guide you into finding community, a sense of wonder & so much more. Winter is such a wonderful time to be outside in nature! Things become clearer with the barren (mostly... those white oaks are special!) trees and dead brush, so we get to be extra curious with our footsteps, taking us closer to our discoveries. We will offer a wide variety of invitations to build community, spark curiosity, ground in gratitude and play.
Items to Bring
Be prepared for long periods of stillness. We say pretend you are going skiing, ice fishing or snowmobiling. You want to have enough layers on so that over the course of two hours you aren't itching to leave due to unprepared coldness. Allow yourself to be as comfortable as possible by layering your clothing and dressing warm. You can always take layers off. Parents of Teens & Tweens- be firm :)
Ages
Geared towards kids 7+, but we welcome diverse family units. If your kids are younger than 7, please be prepared to stay with them throughout the event.
Waiver Forms
Upon registration, you'll be asked to fill out an electronic waiver form prior to the event.
