PUBLIC INVITED Saturday March 24th
The local Parks & Conservation Foundation is hosting its final two interpretive hikes in a series of six.
Looking For Something Different To Do? The public is invited to join Parks & Conservation Foundation volunteers to explore the Piscasaw Fen Conservation Area on Saturday, March 24th. These two events will take about 1.5 hours each. The first hike starts at 10 AM; the second hike starts at 1 PM. These two hikes will start from the Piscasaw Fen Conservation Area parking lot at 8605 Norris Ln., Capron - look for the Piscasaw Fen Conservation Area sign newly installed at the intersection of Edson & Russellville Roads. This site is our crowning gem - you will learn about the unique fen type wetlands, the restored oak & hickory savanna, & see high quality habitat restoration. It has many unique qualities, so please join us on a couple of tromps through muck & mire with Josh Sage, the BCCD Natural Resources Manager. You might get wet feet, so wear knee high waterproof boots. Please dress for the weather & be prepared to walk over rough, unimproved terrain. These hikes have been a hit, so sign up as soon as you can! Please note that there are no restroom facilities available at this site.
You must call 815-547-5711 x11 to RSVP your attendance
by Noon on Friday, March 23rd if you want to partake in refreshments.
