Event details
Ladies, enjoy an evening under the stars cozying up to a campfire while sipping your favorite beverage. Hot cocoa and s’mores will be provided, and feel free to bring your favorite seasonal wine, beer or snacks! Participants will go head to head with an interpretive naturalist on pop culture and wildlife trivia to learn what makes females so powerful and iconic. Close out the night with your choice of group games or just relax around the fire. Whichever you prefer, you won’t regret getting out of the house for a night in the crisp air while reconnecting with friends or making new ones.
