Each Wedesday in June kids ages 8 to 12 are invited on a nature adventure focused on biology and art.
Kids of all ages will learn about wetlands and the critters that call them home at this free event sponsored by the Missouri Department of Conservation.
End the year with a quiet evening stroll along the confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers. For all ages.

After learning the signs, they'll take a short hike to see if they can spot them.
