Hello from Long Lake. Yes, it has been over a month since I have posted on the blog! With the holidays and other things going on, I have been unable to find the time to give you an update on what's going on at LLCC. I apologize for that and will work to do better as we go into this New Year. I do hope your holidays were good ones and you had the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors on your own or with your family. This year has been an excellent one for people who love to snowshoe and cross-country ski. We continue to get ample amounts of snow to keep trails in good shape.
Schools have started once again making the trek to LLCC to participate in the Long Lake Experience. Last week we welcomed another group of Oak Point Intermediate students to Long Lake and this week St. Wenceslaus has joined us to take in the cold wintry weather and the fun activities that go with it.
I wanted to mention a couple of upcoming events we have going at LLCC. This weekend we will have a snowshoeing/cross country ski day here at LLCC. If you are interested in trying these great activities out, check out the website for more details on the event. It is open to the public and no pre-registration is necessary. Along with this, we will be having another event in February in conjunction with the Aitkin Fit City Committee. It is a night time luminary skiing and snowshoeing event that will be held here at LLCC. Again, please check out all the details on the events calendar on the website.
That's all I have for now, get out and enjoy the winter by taking hike, ski, or snowshoe and bring your binoculars or camera with as you never know what winter critters you are going to see!
Until next time-Todd
