Winter Warmth Activity Day

Winter Warmth Activity Day

Contributed by Brenda Cruz

We are getting ready to spread some holiday cheer, help local families of little ones make new friends, and increase awareness of some of our Mat-Su supports for early childhood! 

Join us at the Palmer Train Depot on Monday, November 24 from 2:30-4:30 for an afternoon of fun activities, a coffee corner for parents, resource tables, holiday crafts, and a make-and-take baked potato meal. Our friends from Mat Valley Dance and the Bright Lights Book Project will be there with a play area and free books for littles. Activities and resources by Palmer Food Bank, Kids Kupboard, Alaska Family Services, and ROCK Mat-Su.

Please note that this event is for families with children ages 4 and under. Make-and-take meals available while supplies last.

Thank you to Three Ladybugs Farm and Star Sakis for donating! Questions? Please call 907-745-5824 or email admin@unitedwaymatsu.org.

Prepare to Ride!

As snow moves down the mountains and fills the valleys, the urge to get out and ride grows stronger every day. Don’t just hit the trails this winter, take the time to get trained. Alaska Safe Riders (ASR) has a host of training opportunities available this season thanks to support from a slate of incredible sponsors. Whether you’re looking for avalanche awareness, glacier travel tips, trail rides, or training for your school, ASR has something for everyone.
