The holidays is always a busy time of
year. With all the shopping, baking, decorating and wrapping, there are so many things that need to be done. It’s a time of year for getting
together with loved ones and celebrating with lots of great food and treats and
perhaps a few yuletide beverages. With so much to get done sometimes we get
lost in the strain and the stress of making sure everything is perfect.
This year make time for yourself and your family by participating in some outdoor fun and physical
activity; not only will getting some fresh air and increased
activity make you feel better, it is a great way to have some fun with the family.
Here in Leduc
there are so many options for outdoor fun and activity. A fantastic options is right down the highway at Leduc Country Lights. Walk around the property and take in the light display at this Leduc County acreage that will make the holidays even more special. See this segment on the local news about Leduc Country Lights.
Another outdoor option in Leduc are the many outdoor skating
surfaces that are available for those who want to tie up the blades for some
outdoor fun. There is a new outdoor skating surface at Telford Lake that even
has a Christmas light display to enjoy. For all the other outdoor skating check
out The City of Leduc website of where they all are:
These are just some of the many outdoor opportunities for increasing your physical activity during the busy holiday schedule. By
staying more active you will help keep your energy level up and it will even help
manage some of the added stress that tends to build over the holiday season.
May you all have a very merry and physically active holiday
season.
