Winter Festival with Chili Cook-off!

Don’t miss good times, Irish music, and hot chili cooked by Boston’s best chili masters.  You can also check out the slopes and ski or snowboard under the lights.  If walking is more your speed, join noted naturalist Matt ‘Twig’ Largess on a nighttime tour of the trails.  Discover the Blue Hills in the quiet, frosty beauty of late winter.

Live music, chili, guided hike: Free!
