We’ve rung in 2019, so now it’s time to really get used to enjoying what January’ has in store for us. With this great cool, crisp weather, January is known as the coolest month our state has to offer.

This is a great time to implement those new year’s resolutions by getting out, exploring and celebrating all — or at least some! — of the annual festivities that our local communities offer
