2024-2025 NEWS
SNOWBEQUE STATUS UPDATE (12/5/24; 8:21 aM) Debate has begun on whether this is a “dusting” or not but we have 2 strong arguments for confirming this as enough to warrant a snowbeque.
1. Yaara claims that “if you can make a snowball, it’s more than a dusting.” She then proceeded to make a snowball.
2. With warming trends, we need to be happy about any amount of now we get! Last year was one of the lightest snowfalls on record; we need to celebrate the white stuff whenever we can.
All that said- please join us for the 17th annual First Snow BBQ- tonight at 6:30 pm. (As we are writing this the snow is picking up a bit- hooray! Feel free to join us in today’s mantra: “rain, rain, go away…..”)
SNOWBEQUE STATUS UPDATE (12/4/24; 9:46 PM) Yes, we saw the forecast. TBD if any snow will stick around here or all be washed away. We are not optimistic but will wait and see. Stay tuned!
SNOWBEQUE STATUS UPDATE (10/27/24; 2:39 PM) With both a frost warning and a forecast of unseasonably warm weather this week, you never know what can happen. Check back here if/when you see any flakes. Here's hoping for a snowy winter!
