Where: Cascades
When: January 20th, 7-11pm

Small groups snowshoe a short way with a Wanderlust Tours guide to a quiet spot in the snowy forest to bask at a glowing “bonfire” in the middle of an amphitheater hand carved into the snow. Local naturalist guides share fun facts about the forest, its animal life and the night sky while snowshoers relax around the fire enjoying locally baked desserts and various hot drinks. Includes all transportation, snowshoes, snowshoe instruction, food/drinks and professional naturalist guides. Kids 8 years and older welcome.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving full of family, friends and, of course, food.  Did anyone attend any Central Oregon or Bend-area events this past weekend?  We would like to hear about it!

The weekend is here! The weather looks a bit chilly and perhaps a little rainy… but that’s not to say there are any activities to do this weekend in the Bend & Redmond areas. Here are some ideas:

• As we covered earlier, if it’s not rainy (or if it is, if that’s your thing…) visiting the local pumpkin patch is a must before Halloween
• Attend a “How to Go Solar” workshop. It looks like there are three different workshops going on this weekend. More information can be found at the Solar Oregon website.
