What's Great in Dayton: January 22 - 28, 2016

Aullwood Farm is hosting a Snow Moon walk on Saturday

Snow is part of the beauty of winter. It is a great protector when it blankets the ground and insulates hibernating animals against winter's cold winds. Join an Aullwood naturalist for an evening walk in the light of the beautiful Snow Moon. Bundle up for the cold night air. Saturday, from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. at The Aullwood Farm.

Fish Fry Season is here! It happens every winter in churches, schools and other organizations who load up the deep fryer with white fish and fries, pour the draft beer and roll out the tables for some monte carlo style games. With more than 40 events on the calendar, it's time to grab some friends and plan your weekends.
