(DC) (Ward 8 Woods) Join Ward 8 Woods Conservancy staff, Board members, volunteers, supporters and community in marking the shortest day and longest night of the year. We’ll attune ourselves to natural cycles, while exploring the hilly upland woods of Shepherd Parkway. Through the bare trees we’ll take in views of the city below, reflect on the year past, and renew our spirits and community bonds for the work ahead.  Hot chocolate, tea, and home-made cookies will be served.
