Signs of Spring - POSTPONED

  • Saturday, March 25, 2023, 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM

3/24 update: We apologize but this program has been postponed for reasons beyond our control. We hope you will visit us during spring break for our Spring Nature Hike. Please contact the office with any questions or concerns.

Join us for an afternoon hike around the nature center to look for signs of spring. We will walk amongst the melting snow piles to look and listen for all the sights and sounds of early spring, including wildflowers and returning birds! We will go outside even if it is snowing or raining. We ask you please wear boots that can get wet and or muddy and dress appropriately for the weather.

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.
