SUMMARY:Frugal Frolic 5K
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Frugal Frolic\, an enchanting 5K loop encircling the scenic Colby Lake\, all for an unbeatable price. This budget-friendly event skips the frills like tee shirts and swag but guarantees an abundance of fun and excitement. We are a cashless race\, so you must register online even day of racers. \nThere are two options for you when running this race: \nOption 1: Frugal Frolic 5K \nJust run a normal 5K. Fasted participant to finish wins the race. Immerse yourself in the spirited atmosphere of the Frugal Frolic 5K\, where the Irish charm is palpable\, and you won’t need to part with your pot o’ gold to chase your 5K dreams. Join us for an affordable yet unforgettable running experience that puts the emphasis on enjoyment\, camaraderie and a touch of Irish magic. \nOption 2: Lucky Leprechauns Edition \nGet ready to dash with a dash of luck. The Frugal Frolic 5K: Lucky Leprechauns Edition is the most unpredictable race of the season. Embrace the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day and test your timing skills as you chase the pot of gold at the finish line. But here’s the twist: speed alone won’t win you this race—precision will. \nHow It Works \nAt registration\, each participant will predict their 5K finish time\, runners will have until March 1st to change that time if needed just email us your name and new time. No watches\, phones or timing devices are allowed during the race—it’s all about trusting your inner leprechaun. If you wear a watch\, it must be covered at all times\, if you are caught looking at the watch you will not be counted as a finisher. \nHit the course and enjoy the scenic route. \nThe winner will be the participant who finishes closest to their predicted time without going over. That’s right—it’s like racing meets a game of luck. \nPick your style of race and register today for the best price.

SUMMARY:Earth Day Forest Bathing
DESCRIPTION:Forest Bathing is a slow-moving\, deeply sensory\, mindful and “bodyful” walk in nature that has shown to result in measurable physiological\, cognitive and emotional benefits. Much like walking meditation or yoga\, these activities can be practiced on one’s own\, almost anywhere\, and yet the benefits greatly increase with regular practice. And much like meditation or yoga\, the experience can be significantly more immersive when facilitated by properly trained and certified guides. \nOver the course of this walk\, you will be given a series of invitations—suggested ways to connect to your surroundings. The experience will be mostly silent\, honors each participant’s personal space and covers just about a mile and-a-half over generally flat surfaces. At the end of each invitation\, the group will have an opportunity to share a few words of reflection\, integrating the experience both internally and within community. The walk concludes with tea and light snacks. The walk will be led by a guide from Silvae Spiritus Nature & Forest Therapy\, who has been Certified by the Association of Nature and Forest Therapy Guides and Programs. \nPreregistration is required. Registration typically closes the day before the program at noon. Program fees are nonrefundable and transfers are not permitted.
