Winter Holiday Traditions
Sat, December 07, 2024
Celebrate the holidays the old-fashioned way by hand-crafting items families might have been made on the historic ranches that became Government Canyon.
Learn about and make evergreen wreaths, hand-dipped candles, and other traditional holiday toys and crafts at this come-and-go-event. The Discovery Trail would be great for a winter's hike before or after.
Who Is Invited:
This activity is open to all ages. Minors must be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian. No pets please.
Where to Meet:
Meet at the Exhibit Gallery, next to the Visitor Center.
How to Prepare:

Dress for time spent outdoors. Comfortable shoes, sunscreen, and a hat are recommended. Wear layers that can be added or removed as weather conditions change. Bring at least 1 liter of water per person.
