Places for Winter Fun

Posted by Joanna Caccavo on Jan 8, 2012 in Outdoors | 0 comments

Just because it’s cold outside doesn’t mean that it’s time to hibernate indoors for the winter! Rockland County sports a number of sites for outdoor winter fun, including sledding, ice skating, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling. Think about how good curling up with a cup of cocoa and a good book will feel after an hour or so of frosty-yet-warming exercise (and of course, the kids will love it)!
