Family Fun Program

Saturday, April 19 at 10:30 a.m. Family Fun Program: The Fallen Log

Come out and welcome spring with the Friends of Rogers staff as we venture out on the trail to explore the hidden world of fallen logs. A fallen log leaves a lot of resources behind for other living things to use. Some of the things we will look for are insects, plants, amphibians and much more.
