Programming is geared toward kids aged 4 to 12, but all are welcome! Read on for the schedule of Family Nature Nights 2025.
The girls loved the Nature Night that we attended a couple years back – especially getting the chance to touch fish! We also learned about water insects, the water treatment plant and natural waterways.
