Thursday, October 17 – Moonlight on the Boardwalk Event from 6:30 – 9:30 p.m., with last admission at 8pm (sunset at 6:57 p.m.)

Join us for a fantastic evening on the boardwalk as dusk turns to night during the full moon.  It will be a supermoon, which means it will be closer to earth than usual and will appear larger and brighter.  Come out and enjoy the following activities we have planned for a range of ages:

6:30 - 7:30 p.m. - Touch table on nocturnal animals 

7:30 - 8 p.m. - Children's story time all about nighttime animals 

7:30 - 9 p.m. - Outdoor moth station 

8 - 9 p.m. - Children's nighttime sound identification activity and mini-boardwalk tour

Ongoing: Spotting scopes in the wet prairie for wildlife and night sky viewing
