Do you know who lives in the water, and feeds larger wildlife? Maybe something you've never seen before will surprise you. Using dip nets, we'll catch and observe aquatic critters. All animals will be released unharmed. Others may choose to play with the water, mud, rocks, etc.
Time outdoors in nature is beneficial for everyone.
FREE. Adult supervision required.
Wear water shoes, boots or shoes that will stay on your feet that can get wet and muddy. May want to bring a towel and extra clothes and shoes.
Park at North Bay Pavilion. Meet at the Independence Grove Canoe Launch at 10 AM.
Program will take place underneath the bridge.
