Earth Day is the perfect time to discover the diversity in our park. Come meet our interpreters at 7 p.m. on Saturday, April 23, or 10 a.m. on Sunday, April 24 to pick up a form to take around the park and count flora or fauna species. This plant and animal scavenger hunt is a great way for us to keep track of local diverse populations and make sure that our beautiful park has the biodiversity to thrive. This activity can be done in your own time and then turned back in at the Discovery Center on Sunday, April 24, at 5 p.m. Ask for a special thank you gift when you return your sheet.
