DeVries Nature Conservancy will be hosting its 7th annual Sleigh Ride and Fireside Suppers on Saturday, Jan. 13; Sunday, Jan. 14; Saturday, Jan. 27; and Sunday, Jan. 28. The annual fundraising event has become a community tradition. All of the proceeds are used to support DeVries programs and projects.
Guests will enjoy a 30-minute horse-drawn sleigh ride along the beautiful wooded trails at DeVries, then warm up by the fire with a hearty Italian meal provided by Roma’s Back Door. Hot chocolate and gourmet brownies complete the experience.
Admission for the sleigh ride and fireside suppers is $35 for adults and $15 for children under 10 years of age. Reservations are required and can be made by calling (989) 723-3365.
The sleigh accommodates 13, perfect for church groups, social clubs and extended family outings. In the event of unfavorable snow conditions, a horse-drawn wagon will be used instead of the sleigh.
DeVries Nature Conservancy is located at 2635 N. M-52, a quarter-mile north of the Northside Animal Hospital. Signs will direct guests to parking near the main office and conference center. For more information, visit www.devriesnature.org.
