Here's the description of the event from our website:
Join us at the Watershed Center for this popular annual event. Hike with the Teacher-Naturalists to our tapped trees, learn about the process to convert maple sap to syrup and visit the evaporation station. The highlight of the morning is a delicious pancake brunch, served with our homemade maple syrup made from trees on the Reserve! Part of this program is conducted outdoors - winter gear, including boots, is necessary.
Volunteers are needed to help serve pancakes and other brunch items and to help clean up. Some of the volunteers may be asked to help the naturalists outdoors.
