Memorial Day Weekend at Bergfried

Memorial Day weekend at Bergfried offers many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors and make connections with our community in day hiking, camping, just hanging around the campfire, or helping with chores to keep Bergfried well taken care of for the rest of the season. We'll be there Friday-Sunday, May 22-24. Email bergfriedinfo@eliotchapel.org for more information, directions to Bergfried, and a trail map. Individuals and families of all ages are welcome.
