Wednesdays at Weymouth
Wednesdays at Weymouth is MoCoMom’s easy, no-RSVP weekly playdate designed to help you show up and connect. Perfect for infants and toddlers, expect a relaxed, come-as-you-are vibe at the Weymouth Nature Preserve in Southern Pines.
Beginning in the Discovery Room at 9 AM, we’ll ease into the morning, then head out for a short nature walk once the kids are ready to move.

We’ll start in the Discovery Room at the Weymouth Woods Sandhills Nature Preserve (not the Arts Center!) located at 1024 North Fort Bragg Road in Southern Pines. No RSVP needed—just show up.
