The Town of Greenfield Recreation Department will hold a Winterfest Celebration on Saturday, Jan. 25 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Brookhaven Winter Park, at 333 Alpine Meadows Rd. in Porter Corners.

The event will begin with a 5K snowshoe race. Families or individuals are invited to register for $20 a person at https://www.runreg.com/brookhaven-trails-snowshoe-race.
