This year Trailfest 2012 is a big call to > GET OUTSIDE!! As many of you know, Hot Springs has the honor of having the famous Appalachian Trail go right through the main street in town, the only real 'trail town' on the AT. We do so like to celebrate that fact as often as possible, but this year we are breaking out into the great wide open! Although hiking remains close to our hearts, we will also celebrate bicycles, skateboarding, hoola-hooping, river rafting, soccer, Yoga, and more! This a FREE family event with lots of community involvement all weekend long. We'll kick-off on Friday, April 20th with a delicious (cheap) Spaghetti Dinner, play all day Saturday, April 21 (see agenda), and have pancakes, a float trip, and family soccer on Sunday. Come to Hot Springs and get out side with us!
Hosted by Hot Springs Community Learning Center, a non profit organization serving children ages 3 - 12 years old with Preschool, Transitional Kindergarten, After School Program, out-of-school care, and holiday and Summer Camps.
