Off-Site Story Hour at Wildlife Rescue Center
10 - 10:45am, Free, Reservations not required
With Diane Van Booven, Kids Club Coordinator
Join us as we visit the Wildlife Rescue Center for a story hour and nature walk! We’ll be reading “Around The Pond: Who’s Been Here?” by Lindsay Barrett George. We will then take the nature trail around the pond to look for mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians and the signs they leave behind. Back in the classroom, we will look at and touch feathers, nests, snake sheds and beaver sticks and use stamps to create a backyard coloring page full of wildlife. After story hour, the families will be invited to stay for a short behind-the-scenes peek at the wildlife rehabilitation facility to gain a new perspective on the secret lives of our wild neighbors. The mission of the Wildlife Rescue Center is to rehabilitate injured, sick and orphaned native wildlife and release healthy animals to their natural habitat. Through education outreach, the Center provides environmental awareness, promotes a harmonious relationship with native wildlife and encourages the community to protect our delicate ecosystems.
