Are you feeling the need to decompress after the holidays? Are you making a New Year’s resolution to simplify your life? Are you interested in sharing your ideas with like-minded people?
Join Indian Creek Nature Center and Prairiewoods Franciscan Spirituality Center for a six-week simplicity discussion series. We will be using the Northwest Earth Institute’s Voluntary Simplicity course, and the fee for the program ($30) includes the text needed for the series.
Need to find out more before committing? Not a problem! The first class is free! Join us at Prairiewoods on Tuesday, January 5th from 6:30 to 7:30 PM for the first session. The rest of the classes will be at the same time on Tuesday nights, with the January 12th and 19th classes at Prairiewoods and the January 26th, February 2nd and 9th at ICNC.

Yesterday afternoon, some area homeschoolers hit the powder to try their hand (and feet!) at snowshoeing.
Though it took a little while to get the hang of it, everyone was successful, tired and a little silly by the end.

Are you interested in learning to snowshoe? Indian Creek Nature Center is hosting a snowshoe hike for all ages on Wednesday, December 30th at 10 AM. Try out those snowshoes you got as a holiday gift, or borrow some of our own! For more information, visit the website.
Our annual holiday event, Nature’s Noel, is just around the corner! If you are in the market for fresh evergreen decorations, handmade gifts of all kinds or frozen soups and appetizers, or if you just need a little help getting into the holiday spirit, come join us!
Mark your calendars! Nature’s Noel is Saturday, December 5th from 9 AM to noon.
Is anyone feeling hungry?
Join us at Indian Creek Nature Center for our annual Sierra Club Chili Luncheon and Silent Auction on Saturday, November 14th. Sample some delicious homemade chili and bid on a variety of outdoor equipment, including camping, hiking, gardening and boating items.
The auction and luncheon both begin at 11 am, with bidding on the auction items ending at 12:30. For prices and more information, click here.
We hope to see you out at the Nature Center to support two great causes!
