All year long, join us for any of our several recurring programs!
Busy Bodies is a once monthly movement and art session for toddlers and their caregivers!
During our monthly Sunday Socials, adults are welcomed to Day Street Community Center for Coffee, Tea, games, discussion, and often guest speakers.
Trivia for the Dog Park at the Willowtree Inn occurs monthly, generally on third Tuesdays. It is free to play, with constantly changing categories to keep you on your toes. Proceeds from the night's dinner fundraise for a Stroud Area Dog Park. All ages are welcome!
We offer Wednesday Walks every week! Our jaunts follow a rotating schedule of park locations. Each walk is about two miles of friendly chatting and nature appreciation.
Looking for a weekend walking group? Saturday Strolls are once per month, generally in the third week, and meet at a different local trail each time, giving you an opportunity to appreciate every corner of the Stroud Area!
