National Trails Day Evening Hike

  • Saturday, June 4, 2022, 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Join us for a late spring, evening hike around the nature center in celebration of National Trails Day! 

We will discover what the woodland trails have to offer later in the day. We might catch a glimpse of the notorious beavers working on their dams along the Beaver Marsh Trail, hear the spring peepers peeping, or see waterfowl hunkering down for the night. 

We will also be highlighting the Seven Principles of Leave No Trace and why it is important for everyone to do their part in protecting our national, state, and local recreation areas. 

This event is designed for nature lovers and outdoor explorers of all ages!

We ask you please wear boots or shoes that can get wet and or muddy and dress appropriately for an evening hike around the nature center.

Fee

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

Philosophy

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.
