Interpretive Area: Picnic Shelter 2
When
May 18, 2024. 9:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
Come out and explore nature using tools like the park rangers use to investigate the park's wildlife in this self-guided adventure. Use your current outdoor skills and develop some new ones too as you learn to use binoculars, a magnifying glass, butterfly nets, and a compass to discover our park in a brand new way! You will select the scavenger hunt challenge page level that fits you and then use each tool as described to complete each of the tasks in the hunt. All necessary equipment is provided. This is a 1-2 hour program and all children must be accompanied by an adult.
We strive to make our programming and special event opportunities accessible and inclusive to all. If you have any concern, please reach out to our front office to speak with a ranger or contact us through the park email address. We will attempt to accommodate all individuals or families for their unique circumstances and can do so best with advanced communication.
