About 150 kids and adults came to the Barden at Herrontown Woods on Feb. 23 to celebrate the Year of the Wood Snake.
A wood snake might be a harder sell for some than 2024's Year of the Dragon, but all was fun and pleasure.
The main organizers again this year were Danni Zhao (right) and FOHW board member Inge Regan.
Artist Hope Van Cleaf created some powerful and charismatic interpretations of the Wood Snake, and
coloring opportunities for the kids.
We took the dragons for a walk in the woods.
Towards the end, anticipation was running high for FOHW's first ever raffle.
Thanks to Herrontown Woods' caretaker Andrew Thornton, MC'ing with his able assistant Vadim, as they helped Danni with the raffle.
So much thanks to all involved, including Perry Jones, FOHW intern Ninfa, Molly Cooke, and photographer Vera Zhao.
