The parties are over and the resolutions begin! Start the New Year off right by getting outdoors with nature and friends old and new. Join Kestrel for our New Year’s Day hike in Belchertown on Tuesday, January 1 at 1 pm – 3 pm. (Is Belchertown too far from home? Join us for our other hike in Northampton instead.)

Come along with Dave King, research wildlife biologist for the US Forest Service to explore the Reed Conservation Area. This forested town conservation land has an extensive network of trails, and even some handicapped accessibility. This property is adjacent to Knights Pond, through which Jabish Brook flows.

This is a great opportunity to meet and chat with new people, and learn a little about the land you love at the same time.

Registration is required, but the walks are free of charge. (Severe weather will cancel.)

Happy New Year!
