The new year began with wintry weather. There were icy roads and lakes with snow showers and slick road conditions. The annual conflagration of used Christmas trees in Chocorua River Dam Park takes place on Sunday, Jan. 16, at 5 p.m. The park will light up for the sixth successive year, watched by a socially distanced gathering of friends and neighbors.

Owing to COVID concerns, the popular pre-bonfire libations/Farmstead open house and potluck at Runnells Hall have been canceled again. It’s hoped that they will return in 2023.
