January can be a tricky month for all of us. When the holiday season ends, we miss spending time with loved ones. There’s even the occurrence of Blue Monday, dubbed the most depressing day of the year. But there’s so much fun to be had in and around Fitchburg. Here’s how you can make the most of Madison Winters.<\/p>\n

McKee Farm’s Park<\/a><\/a> is just a couple of minutes down the road with all kinds of sports fields and courts and a splash pad. McGaaw Park<\/a><\/a> is the perfect place to walk your pet and is just a 5-minute drive from The HighLine. <\/p>\n If you’re not the outdoorsy type, one way to get your body moving is by joining Perennial Yoga<\/a>,<\/a> just a few minutes down the road from The HighLine.
