Event Details

Join Seasonal Ranger Molly as we get our feet wet and explore what’s living in Panther Creek. This program is geared towards children, but all ages are welcome! Each participant will get their own net to see what critters they might find in the creek. Please be prepared to get wet, and bring water, bug spray, and sun protection. Water shoes are required to be worn during this program. We will meet at the Creek Observation Deck.
