The 13th Annual Easthampton WinterFest returns on Saturday, February 14, 2026, blending winter fun with local stewardship. A fundraiser for the health of Nashawannuck Pond, the celebration features outdoor activities, performances, wagon rides, and family entertainment. Leading up to the event, online contests in photography and snowflake design invite community participation. Highlights include the Easthampton Fire Department’s Polar Plunge, chili tastings, magician and puppeteer performances, bingo, trivia, and historic ice harvesting. Free and donation-based activities reflect a shared commitment to both winter joy and local ecology. Full details at www.nashawannuckpond.org.
