Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
(Ages 8 - 12) Habitat Days are a kids-only adventure! A habitat a day will keep summer boredom away. This will be a 4-day exploration of the Columbia Bottom habitat mosaic. We will immerse ourselves in a habitat a day including a prairie, forest and wetland. Sum it all up on Friday with a fishing field trip to Bellefontaine Conservation Area. The program will include hands-on investigation, crafts, arts, and a nature journal. Participants must sign
up for all four days and bring a sack lunch. Parents please ask for a waiver to fill out when signing up. The reservation must be filled out by a parent or guardian and is not complete until the waiver is received by Columbia Bottom. (Reservations begin May 17 and end June 8.)
