Monarch butterflies are on the move! Get involved with some citizen science and learn about these cool creatures. We'll take a wagon ride through the park, tagging the Monarchs so that they can be followed on their amazing journey through the United States and down into Mexico. We will also talk about what you can do at home to help these beautiful butterflies. Call 540-663-3861 or stop by the Visitor Center to reserve your spot. Parking fee is $5.
