New Year, New Weekend, More CNY Fun

Start the first weekend of the new year off with some cool outdoor and warm indoor local fun.

Let’s start 2017 off on the right foot with some CNY fun in the snow or cozy inside activities away from the cold, wet and powdery stuff. Where the new year presents another opportunity to shed the negativity and think of a new and better you, it’s also important to think of others as well. Get some enjoyment out of comedy, live music, yoga, eating locally grown food, written and verbal artistic expression or live vicariously through and watching hard hitting sports. Or you could just cuddle up by a fire.
