Tiny Trekking with Kelly Orr
10:00am
Join Kelly to experience the outside world at a child’s pace! You and your child will explore each new bud and flower, climb each rock and log, and probably get a little dirty in the process! This program is geared towards children ages newborn-5 years old and will encourage them to get hands on in the outdoors. Dress for the weather, we will go rain or shine! 10:00 a.m., Meet in the Museum. The program is FREE! Donations will be accepted to help defray the Conservation Center’s programming expenses.

Wildlife in Winter with Colleen Harrak 11:00am
Have you ever noticed that nature just seems quieter in winter? Besides the occasional chirp of a bird or rustle of a squirrel, you’re left to wonder, “Where did everybody go?” Come to this program presented by Environmental Educator Colleen Harrak to find out! Whether it’s migration, hibernation, or remaining active, animals employ clever strategies to get through harsh winter conditions. Along with natural props, this program will feature a couple of our live animal ambassadors. 11:00 a.m., A.B. Ceder Room. FREE, but we would greatly appreciate a donation to our Animal Care Fund.
