It's Not Easy Being Green
Herps walk, crawl, jump, slither and creep. But what are herps? Students will become junior herpetologists as they explore characteristics, adaptations, and unique facts through fun, interactive activities. They'll also meet some herps up close indoors and then go outdoors to search for them in their native habitats.

Then go outside and look for turkeys or their signs. 9:30 to 11 a.m. For ages 6 and up.
