Results - First Annual Winter Solstice Charity Run

It was a beautiful, crisp, and breezy evening for the First Annual Winters Solstice Charity Run.

Eight year old Caroline accrued the most points during the run (17) and chose the Nashua Children's Home to donate the "cash purse" too. Caroline had the opportunity to visit the Nashua Children's Home and donate the "cash purse" to them personally and got the opportunity to tour the home.

Thanks again for a great first annual run. See you next year.

Winter Solstice

The winter solstice occurs exactly when the Earth's axial tilt is farthest away from the sun at its maximum of 22 1/2° 26'. Though the winter solstice lasts only an instant in time, the term is also colloquially used as midwinter or contrastingly the first day of winter to refer to the day on which it occurs. More evident to those in high latitudes, this occurs on the shortest day, and longest night, and the sun's daily maximum position in the sky is the lowest. The seasonal significance of the winter solstice is in the reversal of the gradual lengthening of nights and shortening of days. Depending on the shift of the calendar, the winter solstice occurs on December 21 or 22 each year in the Northern Hemisphere, and June 20 or 21 in the Southern Hemisphere.
