(Okoboji)-It’s Family Nature Night at the Dickinson County Nature Center on Friday, KUOO’s Becky Thoreson has details:
The Dickinson County Nature Center will hold their monthly Family Nature Night on Friday evening.
Environmental Education Coordinator Bryanna Kuhlman says the program’s theme is Leap into Nature. “We are going to be going on a night hike in the wintertime with our participants. So, we will be leaping into nature. While we do that, we are hoping to inspire our participants to remember that all times of year and all times of day are great to go outside, and we are also going to be getting them to use some of their senses, so we’re encouraging no flashlights. Ashley and I will have them for safety, of course, but we will be using our night vision. We’ll start inside in low lit conditions in the Nature Center and then we are going to be outside, doing our hike and enjoying nature.”
She notes that the program is free, however preregistration is requested. “We would love people to call and preregister to the Nature Center just for a head count to make sure that if we do need to divide into two groups, so one group could go with Ashley and one group could go with me, we’re prepared that evening.”
Family Nature Night will begin at 7 o’clock Friday evening.
