DESCRIPTION:The full moon provides an excellent opportunity to explore the night under the natural light of the moon! Come out to enjoy the beauty of the lake and meadow bathed in the moon’s reflected light. Keep eyes and ears active\, and maybe you will spot some of the wildlife that is awake when we are normally inside for the night. \nThis walk will be led by a knowledgable Nature Center Naturalist\, and will take participants over potentially uneven ground on and around Nature Center grounds. Bring warm clothes\, comfortable walking shoes\, a flashlight if available (red light is best to keep your eyes adjusted to the dark!)\, and a sense of adventure! \nMeet at the Nature Center 15 minutes early\, event runs from 8pm – 9pm. \nEvent fee: $6 adults & $4 kids. \nREGISTRATION IS REQUIRED! Call to reserve your spot at 541-593-4394.
