On Saturday, February 1st, from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, Belwin Conservancy will host Midwinter Family Fun. This night of free outdoor activities features hikes through the snow guided by Belwin naturalists, stargazing with Minnesota Astronomical Society, and s’mores around several campfires. The event is free and will take place at the Hilltop Classroom at the Education Site (1553 Stagecoach Trail South, Afton, MN, 55001).

Don't miss this chance to go stargazing with one of the biggest refractive telescopes in the state! The Joseph J. Casby Observatory will be open and volunteers from the Minnesota Astronomical Society will be there to help you see the stars! If you get cold, warm drinks will be available indoors.

Guided night hikes will be available all evening. At 5:15 pm and 6:00 pm, Jenny Hanlon of Stillwater Schools Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) will lead a storytime in the woods specifically geared for children 5 and under.

We look forward to seeing you for a fun night out in nature!
