Button up that overcoat for our January 11, 2020 WHOA!

January 11, 2020 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

WHOA! Even though it’s cold outside that doesn’t mean the outside fun slows down at Moses Scout Reservation. With nearly a dozen “adventures” awaiting, you, your family and friends can play outdoors and (if it gets too cold) play indoors a little bit too.

 

Ice fishing is back by popular demand for the January 11 WHOA. Get out “out on the ice” and meet their terrific ice fishing staff and see what pops up! Learn how to take some frosty pictures with your cell phone and using your powers of observation maybe win a WHOA t-shirt with the selfie-cellphone scavenger hunt! Starting at 9:00 AM here’s the list of the fun stuff just waiting for you to enjoy: blacksmithing, disc golf, escape rooms, geocaching, ice fishing, snow shoeing or mountain biking, photography, radio, snow shelters, and welding.

 

Each month Woronoco Heights Outdoor Adventures (WHOA!) presents activities taking advantage of Moses Scout Reservation’s 1300 acre acres located at 310 Birch Hill Rd. in Russell MA, just a few minutes from I-90 Exit 3. From 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM, a day of “WHOA” is a mere $15 per person, $10 for children under ten years and group rates available for parties of 10 or more. The ever growing list of activities are open to everyone, boys, girls, youths, adults, clubs, teams in short everyone ages 5 to 105! All proceeds benefit various improvement projects and programs at the Horace A. Moses Scout Reservation.

 

Be sure to dress warmly, wear layers of clothing. No need to worry about making a fashion statement, you’ll be at a Scout Camp. Wear what will keep you warm, sneakers are really a “no, no” and keep in mind the old saying, “If your feet are cold . . . then wear a hat!” However, for those who might get chilled, warm food and hot cocoa are always available at their trading post. As WHOA’s director exclaims, “WHOA! Rain, snow, or shine it doesn’t get any better than this!”
