It’s so typical of North Texas. The temperatures slide up and down the thermometer. But in January because there’s a tendency to bundle up instead of tube topping, the Dallas Arboretum is offering a “Thank You For 2017” bargain. Here’s the scoop on the special price:
Instead of the usual $10-$15 admission, the fee is a measly $5 each day for the whole month! Why not take them up on the offer before the 12 Days of Christmas and the 100+ Nutcrackers in the DeGolyer House go on hiatus starting Sunday, January 7? BTW, many of the Nutcrackers are from the collection of the late Rosemary Thornton Brinegar, whose daughter Mary Brinegar is the Arboretum’s CEO/president.
The grounds are the perfect spot to start that brisk walking program that you promised yourself to shed the holiday pounds.
And what about checking out A Tasteful Place? There are indoor activities including daily tastings, classes and demonstration.
Caveat: The Rory Meyers Children Adventure Garden is closed for its annual maintenance. BTW, the $5 does not include parking.
