At designated stops along the way we’ll pause to try our hand at fun early-spring activities. We might investigate the creek, play animal Simon says, discover the age of a tree, listen to bird calls or play tug of war. We’ll take advantage of this amazing season.
Fee: Free!
Age: All ages. Children must be accompanied by a registered adult.
Registration required by Thursday, March 27, by calling 815-722-9301 or online: https://anc.apm.activecommunities.com/fpdwc/activity/search/detail/9456?onlineSiteId=0&from_original_cui=true
