SUMMARY:MRV Memory Tree Lighting Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:The Mad River Valley Memory Tree lighting will make place on Friday\, December 8 a at 5 pm.  The Mad River Valley Memory Tree has long been a highlight to the annual illumination of the valley. At the event there will be music by the Songbird Project\, a fire dance and the reading of the names to be remembered.  The Memory Tree Lighting Ceremony will be recorded and aired later by Mad River Valley Television. \nHonor Your Memory Today!\n$5 each or 5 for $20\nThe Mad River Valley Memory Tree provides a way for community members to remember and honor a loved one\, event\, or anything close to your hearts and support a great cause too. At the tree lighting ceremony the bulb dedications are read. Each light dedication costs $5 with donations matched by the Winthrop H. Smith Jr. Family Foundation. All funds raised from the Memory Tree initiative are donated to the stewardMRV program that works to steward the MRV’s outdoor recreational access point. \nThe original concept was borrowed from the Saint Johnsbury Lions Club. Each year they would hold a tree lighting ceremony  where they would read the names of those who bought bulbs and for whom. After the Lions Club disbanded the Memory Tree tradition went away until Joan Wilson\, John Gallagher and Nancy and Jess Mobley revived the idea in 2013. Each year a different cause is selected as the beneficiary of the funds raised. \nHonor Your Memory Today!\n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Animal Tracking Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Curious about wildlife activity now that winter is upon us? Luckily\, snow offers us a great canvas to see exactly who is here 🙂 \nJoin Friends of the Mad River and Dave Muska\, naturalist and educator\, for a workshop on tracking and trailing wildlife\, aimed at beginner-level participants. \nWe’ll start at the shelter at Lareau Farm with a review of the signs\, habitats\, gaits\, and tracks of species we might encounter in early winter. Next\, we’ll head out on a walk in search of signs of animals. Along the way\, we’ll learn about different tracking techniques and test our newly acquired knowledge in the wild. \nRegister here: https://www.friendsofthemadriver.org/news/december-expert-series-animal-tracking
