Insects come in so many shapes, colors, and sizes! Come explore insect life on the prairie with a family bug hunt on Saturday, June 25 from 9:30 a.m.to 10:30 a.m. We’ll use bug jars and sweep nets to explore our world and will have simple field guides for families to identify what they find. Children ages 5-12 years old will most enjoy this program, but everyone is welcome! Children must be accompanied by an adult.  

Registration is required and space is limited - please call Ranger Katie at 608-779-2391 to sign up.
