Join us for a nature activity in the park! Each week the Library and Parks & Rec will present a short read-aloud and songs and then provide an activity/lesson to hand out to parents/carers to do with their young people through age 5. Dress for the weather and trail walking. Let's get some fresh air and have fun!

Wednesdays at 11AM, McCormick Park Veterans Plaza

Nature Buddies will not meet on 12/22, 12/29, or 3/23.
