Celebrate Maple Season!

Join us for this community event at the South Shore YMCA Natural Science Center to celebrate the New England maple sugaring season. The day will be equally educational and delicious – with a tree-tapping demonstration, nature walks, kids’ crafts, live music, maple taste tests, a maple lab, maple food vendors, and more! Maple Day will be held rain or shine.

This program is supported in part by grants from the Hingham, Norwell, Rockland and Weymouth Cultural Councils, local agencies which are supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.
