I suppose we shouldn’t have doubted the groundhog.
If we get as much snow as hype this week you’ll need this list we made last year of great spots to go sledding in Richmond. We also have a few egg carton crafts and if you stock up on milk, only to get an inch of snow you may want this list too. Whether you stay in or go out, please remember to bundle up. It’s seriously cold out there and if it does snow, you may want to call ahead to make sure these events are still happening.
