The Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year, falls on Sunday, December 21st. Sunrise is 7:11 AM, with dawn officially starting at 6:40 AM. For those hearty souls who want to greet the turning of the seasons with half-open eyes, join us at the parking lot at the end of Drabbington Way at 6:30 AM.

Please come by “Trimming the Tavern” at the Golden Ball Tavern, featuring festive decorations by Weston’s favorite community organizations, including Weston Forest and Trail Association! For our first year participating, WFTA has chosen “Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening” as our theme — for obvious reasons!

Here are some of our favorite photos from around Weston’s forests and trails throughout this year, all taken by WFTA trustee Chris Jylkka.
