River "Creek" Walk

Flip rocks, explore riffles, and scoop water bugs during a river walk. Who knows what else we may discover!

Plan on getting wet and muddy. Participants are encouraged to wear close-toed shoes that will not be pulled off in mud (i.e., not flip-flops).

*Notice - this event was initially planned for Peterson Park, but has been moved to McFarland Park due to high river levels.

Children must be accompanied by an adult; not appropriate for strollers. Program geared toward children/families, but all are welcome to attend.

Free but registration required by August 28,
