Come and celebrate the feast of St. Valentine with a romantic candlelight hike or snowshoe with your loved one followed by a blessing and talk by Fr. Joe Simmons, SJ.

The Green Loop encounters the pond, Otter Creek, the Rubicon River and the boardwalk. The trail, which will be lined with luminaries, is approximately 3/4 of a mile and mostly flat, making for a beautiful walk.

The hike will end with a cozy fire inside St. Francis Hall with a talk and blessing by Fr. Joe. Light appetizers, beer, wine, hot chocolate and tea will be provided.

Snowshoe use free to members while supplies last. Leashed pets are welcome on the trails but not allowed in the buildings.

Early Bird pricing available through January.

Tickets are non-refundable.

Participants will be notified of any changes in the evenings itinerary due to weather conditions via the email address used during registration.
