Volunteers from the White River Nordic Council gathered at the upper Marvine campground Saturday, Nov. 5 for the annual yurt raising. The yurt is available for skiers, snowshoers and other winter recreationalists for the season, and now includes a first aid kit donated by Pioneers Medical Center. Folks are invited to “Come Enjoy the Yurt” this Saturday at 5:30 p.m. for a moonlit evening of dining and celebrating the start of the winter season, even if there isn’t any snow yet. Bring a can of chili and fixin’s.
