“We’re excited to be working with our community partners to plan a day of fun winter activities that people will really enjoy. Everyone is invited to this event as we celebrate our frontline workers who have been instrumental in helping others through the pandemic,” says Erin Dolmage, UTRCA Community Education Technician.
Celebrating Natural Connections commemorates the efforts of frontline workers during the COVID-19 pandemic and celebrates the natural spaces that are so important for our physical and mental health. Many local organizations, artists, hiking and naturalist groups are involved in the events.
