State park to host First Day Hike
Lake Tawakoni State Park will continue a yearly tradition Jan. 1, hosting its annual First Day Hike. In a press release, the park staff announced "Let's get 2017 started off with a beautiful 1.5-mile guided hike along our easy Spring Point Trail. We will meet at the amphitheater at 9 a.m. on Jan. 1.
"As we hike together, we'll talk about some of the features and history of both Lake Tawakoni, and the park. There will be some fantastic lake views, so bring your camera and binoculars. We may also see deer, eagles, and other wildlife along the way.
"Bring water and don't forget to dress for that cool January morning weather. Please contact the park headquarters with any questions and to sign up for this great way to ring in the new year. Hope to see you all on the lake!"
