Critter House Event with the Earth Care Group

We’re going out to the Critter House at Leslie Science and Nature Center again like we did in the Spring and see how the animals are doing. They should also have their water activities open around the playground, so plan accordingly for kids to get wet. We’ll head over right after Church in the Park and a picnic lunch. Stay however long you want.

Here’s the event description for the Critter House website: Observe frogs, turtles, snakes, and more as they hop, crawl, and slither in their homes! Our Critter House is home to many species native to the region. It’s a great way to get up close and personal with some fascinating animals, all while developing an appreciation for the incredible diversity of the natural world.
