Winter Fun with The PORT

On such a snowy day, it only seems appropriate to update everyone on all of the different winter activites at The PORT.

Tuesday, February 24th was the final day of our Trailblazers Snowshoeing program. 6 students ventured out with me to explore the new Brimstone Hill Trail, created by the Freeport Conservation Trust. It was a beautiful day, and quite an adventure to follow the white blazes marking the trail since every tree was covered in snow!
If you missed Trailblazers in February, there's still time to sign up for March Making Music, featuring workshops on songwriting and exploring musical styles.

This past weekend, we also took our White Mountain Nordic Ski Trip with The PORT Outdoors. We couldn't have asked for more blue skies or nice views! It was definitely an adventure to explore a new ski center, and we enjoyed time both on the trails and in the warming hut.
If you're looking to get outside with The PORT Outdoors, be sure to save the date for our March 21st hike of Tumbledown Mountain!

And this winter update wouldn't be complete without mentioning the fun we had over February break. As promised, we had Wii tournaments and letterboxing adventures, as well as quite a few games of pool and ping-pong. It was a great, relaxing vacation week, and we enjoyed getting to see some new faces at The PORT.
We're already planning for more vacation week fun in April, so stay tuned.

Overall, we've really been enjoying winter at The PORT. If you missed some of these great programs, there is still plenty of opportunity to check out what's coming next. We hope to see all of you at the teen center soon!

Later,
