\"friends-of-rogers\"<\/a>Join Friends of Rogers to create a festive holiday wreath during one of their popular seasonal workshops on Dec. 3. Two\u00a0sessions will be offered; one will begin at 10 am and another will start at 11:30 am. Participants will receive instructions\u00a0and all materials necessary to design and build this traditional decoration.<\/p>\n

A holiday wreath is one of the most popular decorations during the yuletide season. Wreaths are traditionally hung on\u00a0front doors as a sign of welcome, used in Advent wreaths in Christian traditions, strung from lampposts in cities and\u00a0villages, and used in a variety of other ways.<\/p>\n

Although the wreath has strong historical ties to Christianity, the holiday\u00a0wreath has evolved into a sign of welcoming and an acknowledgment of holiday cheer for the season, emphasizing\u00a0generosity, giving, and the gathering of loved ones.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are extremely grateful to Evergreene Graphics for partnering with us,\u201d said Simon Solomon, executive director.\u00a0\u201cSince 2011, when Friends of Rogers saved Rogers Environmental Education Center from closing, we have relied on the\u00a0generosity of local businesses like Evergreene Graphics to support community activities, allowing this vital resource to\u00a0be preserved \u2013 and to flourish.\u201d<\/p>\n

Space is limited; advance registration is strongly encouraged at $12 for members or $15 for not-yet- members; call (607)\u00a0674-4733 or email env.educator@FriendsofRogers.org to register.<\/p>\n

The workshop will be held in the Visitor Center on State Route 80 in Sherburne; those needing to may use the adjacent\u00a0parking lot, and the center is accessible.<\/p>\n

Rogers Center is operated by Friends of Rogers Environmental Education Center, Inc., a nonprofit organization that\u00a0offers educational programs for people of all ages. Seasonal hours are from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Wednesday through\u00a0Saturday, and from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
