Maple Sugaring Day

#Thursday

From Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail:

Celebrate Maple Sugaring Day, this Saturday, April 8, at Fort Stevenson State Park, North Dakota. The event, in its third year, will give everyone an opportunity to see how to make maple syrup – from tapping box elder trees for sap to boiling it down to make the syrup. (Did you know that box elders are members of the maple family?) A free-will pancake and sausage breakfast will be served, so you can taste the freshly made, pure syrup on the spot! Hours will be 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Fort Stevenson State Park is on the shores of Lake Sakakawea, just south of Garrison, ND.
