Maple Sugarin’ Festival

The Festival is back! The Maple Sugarin’ Shindigs have been wonderful, but it’s time- you are invited to our grand celebration of spring- the Maple Sugarin’ Festival!

See description below.

In an effort to make the Maple Sugarin’ Festival more accessible to everyone, the registration fee is the same for members and non-members this year. Instead of a discount, members will get some fun Riveredge swag when they arrive at the festival!

All ages welcome!

Everyone ages 2+: $3 | Children under 2: Free!

Pre-registration is highly recommended, but not required. Online registration will close at 4pm on Friday 3/17. Walk-in registrations will be available the day of the festival!

Sponsor: Outpost Natural Foods

Weather Forecast
Saturday will be cold and windy. Trails are icy. Please dress in warm layers! We have adapted activities for warmth and safety.

Instead of hiking through the Sugarbush, a shuttle will be provided between the activities at the Main Center and those at the Sugarbush House. We will have additional Handicap Parking available at both sites if you will need your vehicle for transport.

Check in and Registration at the Main Center.

Parking
If parking fills up at the Main Center, there will be parking available at Newburg Fireman’s Park, and a bus shuttle will be running.
