Frozen Zucchini Snowshoe Adventure hosted by Smart Farm of Barrington

The Smart Farm of Barrington is hosting the 1st Annual Frozen Zucchini Snowshoe Adventure!  Just another reason to get outside and enjoy the beautiful winter wonderland.  On January 30, 2011, Smart Farm of Barrington, along with our sponsors, will host the first annual Frozen Zucchini Snowshoe Adventure at Ron Beese field in Barrington, Illinois.  The 5k snowshoe adventure is designed for athletes of all levels.  The Frozen Zucchini will also host a kids' dash and a winter festival; a great time for the entire family.  The 5k will begin at 10am and will begin near the Smart Farm garden and trek around the Baker's Lake Forest Preserve.

You don't have snowshoes….no problem!  With the Frozen Zucchini you can use your own snowshoes or you can rent a pair.  Rental snowshoes are limited, so be sure to sign up early if you need to rent.  You can arrange for rentals when you register for the Frozen Zucchini.

By signing up for the Frozen Zucchini Snowshoe Adventure, individuals will be supporting the Smart Farm of Barrington, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.  Visit the Smart Farm at www.smartfarms.org.
