CCEEC celebrates the solstice with a quiet, self-guided walk through woods and fields, with luminarias along the way.

The lighted trail leads roughly a quarter mile out to the edge of Mauch Chunk Lake, then returns by the same route. A few short stops along the way allow participants to listen for owl calls. Cocoa, cookies, and a small nature craft station can be enjoyed afterward afterwards.

The evening is free for everyone, with no registration required. If cancelled or postponed due to bad weather, notice will be made on CCEEC’s facebook page, and on their website at www.carboneec.org.

The center is located at the west end of Mauch Chunk Lake Park, just outside Jim Thorpe, along Lentz Trail.
