Get ready for a family-friendly hike at the University of Akron Field Station! Join us for a morning of exploration, discovery, and fun for the whole family. We will hike from ~10-11 AM and then after we will be able to hang out and explore the area around the field station.

Join us as Dr. Rocket takes us through the stunning Bath Nature Preserve where we'll uncover the secrets of the plants, animals, and ecosystems that call this place home. Expect exciting views, mind-blowing nature facts, and plenty of chances to spot wildlife. The hike will be ~1mi on unpaved trails so bring comfortable shoes and baby carriers for littles that can't walk that far.

During the hike, you'll learn about the diverse plants, animals, and ecosystems that make Bath Nature Preserve a special place. Dr. Rocket will lead engaging activities and share fascinating facts about the local wildlife, making this a fun and enriching experience for kids and adults.

This event is free and open to the public, but registration is required to ensure we have enough materials and snacks for all participants. Please ensure that everyone in your group is registered so we have an accurate count.

Bring grandma, cousins, friends, whomever! No family? No problem! This hike is open to anyone who wants to join.

SCHEDULE:

Guided walk: 10 - 11AM

Snacks + Nature Play: 11 - 12PM We will provide light snacks but feel free to bring your own.
