NORTH ANDOVER —Harold Parker State Forest will host a First Day Hike on New Year’s Day, Tuesday, January 1, at 10 a.m.  

Start off the New Year right with an invigorating First Day Hike in a beautiful state park, and make a resolution to burn off those extra holiday calories.  

This will be a moderately paced hike of about two miles. Explore Harold Parker with other New Year’s revelers and afterwards warm up with a fire and some hot chocolate and refreshments from the Friends.  

It’s best for kids 8 and over. Be prepared for cold weather – dress in layers and wear winter boots. Meet at the Harold Parker headquarters located at 305 Middleton Rd., North Andover.
