MAPLE SYRUP FESTIVAL
Next Sunday, March 14
at
Lutheran Memorial Camp
Fresh
maple syrup on your pancakes tastes “sooooooo” good! Come find out
just how good it is! Take a walk with a naturalist to learn how to
identify and tap the maples, then help to collect the sap. Allow the
sugaring mist to waft your way from over the boiling sap. Then see if you
can tell the difference between non-maple syrup and the “real McCoy”!
Maple donuts and sassafras tea are other satisfying treats found over the
open fire. Tour the craft tables, and take home some “camp-made”
goodies from the maple kitchen. Stock up on your yearly supply of
maple syrup. All proceeds go into the LMC Campership Fund, which helps
children have a Christian camping experience they will never forget!
Cost for the meal:
$6.50 for adults and $4.50 for children ages 5-12.
LMC is located just south of
