Waushara County Chapter of the Ice Age Scenic Trail

18th Annual Sweetheart Candlelight Event

February 11, 2017 -- 5-9 PM

Caribou Bay Retreat

N795 County Rd. JJ, Coloma, WI

This family event is a fun winter outing for all ages. After hiking, snowshoeing, or cross-country skiing on the Wedde Creek Segment, warm yourself by the bonfire. Go inside the Caribou Bay Retreat to enjoy music by the Cody Clauson Trio and refreshments - and be sure to enter the raffle for great prizes.

Here's why I donate art to the Ice Age Scenic Trail's annual Sweetheart Candlelight Event's fundraising raffle:

~ The raffle proceeds go directly to creating, protecting, and supporting the trails in Waushara County.

~ The Waushara County Chapter maintains 20.5 designated miles of trail divided between 6 segments.

~ Access to the trails is free.

~ Giving back to an organization that helps preserve the areas where I hike and paint is simply "the right thing to do."

Byer's Peak 12 x 16

Day 18 - 30 Paintings in 30 Days

This was painted from a photo I took while my husband and I were hiking with my son and daughter-in-law near Fraser, Colorado in the Arapahoe National Forest at St. Louis Creek. This is very near their home; what a beautiful area, I see why they want to live there.

Ten percent of the sale of this painting will be donated to the Waushara County, Wisconsin Chapter of the Ice Age Trail as part of the PaintTheParks program.

Amber Reflections 16 x 12

I often listen to books on tape while I paint....I was listening to "The Secret Life of Bees" while painting this one. The subject of this painting is the Parfrey's Glen Area of the Devil's Lake State Park near Baraboo, Wisconsin. As a member of www.PaintTheParks.com I will donate 10% of the sale of this painting to the Ice Age Trail - National Scenic Trails.

WILLOW CREEK 12 x16

Our ground is still covered with several inches of snow. Working on this painting brought welcome relief to my snowblinded eyes. I'd love to be sitting on the fallen tree, dangling my feet in the creek.
This creek is in the Willow Creek State Fisheries Area. As a member of Paint the Parks, I will donate 10% of the sale of this painting to the Ice Age National Scenic Trail.
