Mendon Mud-Stompers
Advertisement
Turn those "middle-of-the-week slumps" into trail-side adventures. Mud-Stompers is a high-energy, nature-based hiking club designed for kids who aren't afraid to get a little dirt on their boots!
Every session, we dive into the wonders of springtime as we explore the diverse ecosystems of Mendon Ponds Park. From the rolling eskers to the hidden wetlands, your child will experience the best of the outdoors through a mix of movement, science, and play.
What We Do
Each week is a brand-new adventure in a different section of the park. Our sessions include:
Springtime Hikes: We’ll traverse the trails to see the forest waking up.
Wildlife Observations: From spotting migratory birds to searching for vernal pool critters, we’ll learn to look (and listen) like real naturalists.
Nature Games: We burn off steam with interactive games that teach ecology and teamwork.
Mud & Memories: It’s in the name! We embrace the season, whether we’re puddle-jumping or trekking through the thaw.
Schedule & Details
When: Select Wednesdays. Sign up for one, two, three, or all six!
Time: 3:30 PM – 4:30 PM
Where: Mendon Ponds Park (Meeting locations vary weekly—specific trail heads are listed below!)
What to Wear: Layers and sturdy, waterproof boots are highly recommended!
Note: Our program runs rain or shine (or mud!). We believe there’s no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong gear. We will only cancel in the event of unsafe winds and/or thunderstorms.
Cost: $5 /child with one free adult. $5 for additional adults.
