Join us for Hiking Day 3 of 3 at Weldon Springs State Park! 

In this part, kids will learn about proper hiking methods while exploring the nature center museum, frog pond, and surrounding natural prairie. They will also identify and learn about invasive plants along the way.
 
The hike departs promptly at 9:15 am. Wear comfortable shoes. The hike will be on maintained trails. Please bring a bottle of water, insect repellent, sunscreen, closed-toed shoes and socks. 
 
This program is a great series filled with opportunities to get kids outside and in touch with the outdoors and experience some basic skill sets that can be beneficial for a lifetime like:
 
  •  Fishing
  •  Vegetable Gardening
  •  Natural Resources
  •  Shooting a bow and arrow.
 
Each participant will receive a passport where youth can add their photo and also have it stamped at each part of the series they participate in!
