Augusta Center for Health & Rehabilitation is set to host a Groundhog Day Celebration on Friday, Feb. 2.
“Kennebec Kenny” the groundhog is preparing to emerge from hibernation out of his burrow at 10:15 a.m. Feb. 2, the rough midway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. His burrow is located in the center’s courtyard at 188 Eastern Ave.
Last year, Kennebec Kenny’s prediction was spot on, according to a news release from Keith Smith at the center.
Visitors can join residents at the celebration immediately following his prediction for brunch treats and coffee.
For more information, contact Smith, director of life enrichment, at [email protected] or 207-623-6849.
