Activities for December 2025
Dear Members and Friends:
Please join us for the following GMC activities for December 2025 and January 1, 2026.
Saturday, December 13. Hike the Bay Circuit Trail Sudbury Reservoir Section. The Sudbury and Foss Reservoirs are the emergency backup drinking water source for over 3 million residents of eastern Massachusetts. There is a nice parking spot at the trailhead; spaces for about 5 cars or so. This puts you right on the reservoir. The Bay Circuit Trail runs along the carriage road and there is a more rustic trail option right down by the water. Plenty of birds along the way, woodpeckers, ducks, heron. The hike is about 2.25 miles one way for a round trip of about 4.5 miles. We will hike out along the carriage road and back along the water’s edge. For more information or to register for the hike contact David Miller at 508-853-8964 or sentierdeau@gmail.com.
Sunday, December 21 at 3:30 pm. Winter Solstice Hike and Campfire at Sibley Farm with Greater Worcester Land Trust. The hike will be a Beaver Meadow Loop, about 2 miles round trip. Following the hike there will be a campfire with hot cocoa and hot dogs. Bring warm footwear, a headlamp, and layer up for standing around. Meet at Sibley Farm at 131 Greenwood Street in Spencer, MA 01562. Let Mike Peckar know that you’re coming at fog@fognet.com so there will be enough food.
Thursday, New Year’s Day, Pot Luck Luncheon at the Camp Lodge, 345 Rawson Street in Leicester. We will meet at noon at the lodge. Bring a dish to share. We will have a fire in the wood stove, hot cocoa, coffee and cider. Welcome in the New Year at the camp lodge with members and friends!
