We are averaging close to 25 participants per night. SPECIAL EVENTS SNOW DAY: Snow Day, a cooperative effort with Anoka County Department of Parks and Recreation, was a big hit. Over 200 people attended this event on January 22 at Wargo Nature Center. Many participants commented on how great it was to get outside and have fun in the snow. Activities included: cross - country skiing, Norwegian kicksledding, snow shoeing, winter softball, winter rope pull, crafts and skijoring demonstrations. Al activities, except skijoring, were "hands on" - which the participants really enjoyed.
