ECO Kids Discovery Day

Bring your kids to explore nature at the Visitor Center during this special outdoor learning day. ECO Kids Discovery Day—where ECO stands for Every Child Outside—brings the natural world to life through hands-on activities. Your family can rotate through discovery stations led by volunteer naturalists, join in pop-up story circles where kids and adults share stories together, and take a guided nature hike led by an experienced guide. The hike runs about 45 to 60 minutes and departs at 2 p.m., so you can arrive anytime between 1 and 4 p.m. to fit your schedule. This program welcomes children of all ages and happens on the first and third Saturday of each month (weather permitting). A recommended donation of $15 per car applies for non-members, though all families are welcome. It's a relaxed, interactive way for kids to connect with their natural surroundings and learn from knowledgeable volunteers. For more information or questions, you can reach the organizers at (502) 955-8512.
