Guided bird walk. Jackson Park, Hendersonville , 9-11 a.m. Co-sponsored by ECO and Henderson County Bird Club. Please note the corrected date.

 

Quietly welcome the return of the sun to the northern hemisphere as we celebrate the darkness of the longest night. We'll stroll together to Hooker Falls in DuPont State Forest on a 1/4-mile moderate trail. Bring flashlights (we'll use them sparingly) and a warm drink to toast the Winter Solstice. Meet at Hooker Falls parking lot on DuPont Rd. Phone 828-692-0385 for directions or visit www.DupontForest.com. This is the correct date of the event, not the 21st as published in the Times-News.
