Join in the fun of National Kid’s to Parks Day by seeking live at the water’s edge.  We’ll begin with a hike to our Living Shoreline for some dip netting.  Our catch will be on display for all of our guests to see What’s in the Water.  Be sure to visit the Discovery Room and learn more about aquatic life.
