Upcoming Community Events in Lexington, MA!

Just because the holidays are over, that doesn’t mean life has to get dull here in Lexington, MA. There is always so much to do in the community! Whether you’re looking for a family activity that is suitable for all ages, or you’re looking for an adult-friendly night out or a kids-only camp or workshop, Lexington has you covered.

As your Lexington real estate agent, I’ve put together a list of some of the top Lexington events to mark in your calendar during the month of January. Bookmark the ones that sound most interesting to you!

1.  Register your whole family or group of friends for the 6th Annual 5K Road Race taking place this Saturday, Jan. 10, beginning at 11 a.m. The Resolution Run to Kick Cancer will begin at the Lexington High School Field House, and it includes a route that is fast and flat through historic Lexington. Registration is $30 per person, or $35 the morning of. Food from local restaurants and caterers will be available for runners to enjoy, and awards will be given out in numerous categories. It’s for a great cause! For more information, read our last blog post.

2.  On Saturday evening, from 6:30 to 11:30 p.m., visit the Lexington Historical Society Depot Building for their annual gala fundraising party and dinner event. Mid-Century Memories and Tastes will honor Julia Child through a special menu straight from her cookbooks. Cocktails, dinner and dancing will be provided, and formal attire is required. A mid-century era dress for the ladies is encouraged! Reservations are now being accepted. Tickets cost $125, with $50 tax deductible. 

3.  This Sunday, Jan. 11, head to Katahdin Woods for a Winter Snowshoe Walk! Bring your snowshoes, ski poles and water bottles and join the Citizens for Lexington Conservation for the first of a series of snowshoe walks this winter. Enjoy the beautiful landscapes of a New England winter! Other walks will take place Jan. 25 and Feb. 15. If snow cover is thin, the group will still walk without snowshoes.
 
4.  Mark your calendar for the Lexington Pops Chorus Winter Concert, which takes place Jan. 16 and 17 at Hancock Church. Advanced tickets cost $15 and $5 for children 13 and under. The first half of the concert includes intense, passionate music. The second half includes lighter selections from “West Side Story” and “The Fantasticks” and some Beatles pieces. 

5.  On Jan. 25, head to Lexington High School for the Lexington Bicentennial Band Winter Concert from 3 to 4:30 p.m. This concert is free and open to the public, but donations are always welcome. It will take place in the auditorium. This is a great way to relax and unwind on a Sunday afternoon!
