Presentation: Hiking with Joy-Trail Games and Activities for Families of all Ages

One of the greatest joys of introducing your children to nature can be family hikes. From informal walks through the town park to a more adventurous walk in the White Mountains, having a bag of tricks will make the outing more meaningful for your children and more special for you. Joy Norkin is a teacher, a Registered Maine Guide, and a leader in the AMC Youth Opportunities and Teen Wilderness Adventure Programs. She knows her kids, she knows her activities, and she can teach us how to master her favorite puzzles and games, and how to know which activity is right for the moment. Whether you are starting a growing family or grandparenting energetic young ones, this approach will work for you. Get ready for summer family activities with this single fun session.

On Thursday May 5th, Joy will describe and demonstrate these trail games and activities. Come to the Morrell Room of Curtis Memorial Library at 23 Pleasant Street in Brunswick, Maine. A potluck dinner begins at 6pm, followed by Joy’s presentation at 7pm. Bring a potluck item to share and your own dinnerware (plate, utensils, etc.). Drinks will be available. Free and open to the public, so invite a friend. For more information download a flyer (132 KB PDF) or contact John Mullens
