The Woods in Winter

  • Monday, January 17, 2022, 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
  • Monday, January 17, 2022, 1:30 PM - 3:00 PM

Learn more about the woods in wintertime during this school holiday programming at the Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center.

Participants are encouraged to dress warmly and in layers. Outdoor footwear or winter boots that can be strapped into a snowshoe should be worn. Sneakers and fashion boots with heels do not fit in the straps and will make walking very difficult. If there is a scarcity of snow, attendees will enjoy a winter boot walk. 

Fee

$4.00 per person up to $12.00 per family. Children under the age of 3 are free.

Philosphy

The best way to learn about ecology is to be out in it! Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center is a laboratory where youth and adults can observe nature first hand, alone or under the guidance of one of the Center’s Environmental Educators. Public programs often feature guest presenters who are recognized leaders in the fields of wildlife management, outdoor education, and botany. It is also the Center’s belief that learning should be fun.
