SUMMARY:Portland Trails Holiday Dash 5K
DESCRIPTION:Let’s get together and burn off a few calories from the previous night’s MOAC Holiday Party!  And help out an allied trails organization with their biggest fundraising event of the year!  Whether you’re planning to run\, jog or walk\, join us and ring in the holiday season in MOAC outdoor-active style!  Less of a race (although there’s always a few confused souls who utterly miss the point and actually compete) and more of a 3.1 mile long pedestrian holiday parade.  Participants are encouraged to dress up in festive garb and just have a blast.  And why not?  Race route will be alongside Portland’s iconic Polar Express Narrow Gauge Railroad.  With a special extension to take in the scenic East End water treatment plant\, always an olfactory delight!  Your MOAC event organizer will be walking most of the course\, although pride and vanity might compel him to push his creaky knees and jog the last 200 yards – for the all important cow-bell enhanced\, race volunteer-cheered\, finish line photo-op!  Entry fee is a spendy $40\, but remember this is for a good cause.  And it includes a free gift (often a Portland Trails embroidered winter hat) and hot chocolate at the end.  I’ll be springing for the extra $15 meal ticket for the post race brunch and complimentary pint at nearby Ri Ra’s.  Come join us!

SUMMARY:North Falmouth Community Forest hike
DESCRIPTION:I haven’t been here before\, but it’s been recommended.  Let’s check it out while the weather is good. \nAllTrails says the loop is about 5 miles and 600 feet elevation gain.  AllTrails rates it as moderate\, but it looks fairly easy for a moderate hike.  Note that hunting is allowed here\, so wearing orange is a good idea. \nContact me for more information and directions.

SUMMARY:Maine Outdoor Film Festival’s Snow Day Dreams

SNOW DAY DREAMS is for that kid inside us who just can’t wait for winter. \nPiggyback on freestyle and backcountry experiences\, get an intimate look into the art of ice harvesting during a climate crisis\, and take a sensory tingling exploration of the interconnectedness of flow state in winter surf\, snowboarding\, and songwriting. SNOW DAY DREAMS will have you hauling your gear down from the attic and scoping the 10-day! \nEmail me if you are interested in going.  I’ll get back with you about where to meet.  Possible dinner before the show. \nScheduled program is in the event link.

SUMMARY:Cancelled:  prayer for snow
DESCRIPTION:Cancelling this.  It does not look like we will get significant snow.  I don’t really want to take a walk in the rain\, maybe I’ll play pickleball or something… \n  \nThere’s a chance of snow friday into Saturday.  This winter has been a big disapointment\, so I’m praying this weekend is the first ski day of the year.  There won’t be enough snow to open Pineland\, so I’m coming up with plan B.  We need about 6 inches of snow to make this work\, which may be a bit of a stretch… \nMeet at Pettengil farm Freeport ME.  On Pettingil road\, just off Bow street\, 1.5 miles from downtown. \nTrails are not groomed\, so it will be a bit of a backcountry experience\, but I’ll set a track\, so it should be pretty simple to follow.  There’s some stairs you’ll need to remove skis for a short bit on the trail. \nIf we don’t get snow\, or it’s a wintry mix\, this could be a walk in rain/slush\, or we can just go downtown for a cup of coffee.  Keep your fingers crossed! \n
