# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Expedition Kansas - Insect Exploration Weekend
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 14 Aug, 2026 at 04:00 pm – Sun, 16 Aug, 2026 at 03:00 pm
- **Event Description**: We'll be conducting a broad survey of insects in and around the last remaining 4% of North America's tallgrass prairie ecosystem from our campsite in Council Grove, Kansas. Situated close to the geographic center of the United States, it's an area rich in both human and natural history.

Throughout the weekend we'll be visiting several private lands and national preserves to record as many insect species as possible during this weekend, including dung beetles, moths, butterflies, grasshoppers, mantids, stick insects, and so much more.

This is a perfect mini-expedition for everyone, and particularly those involved in our Great Insect Quest! (if you want to join that, register here - https://www.entomologycoalition.org/greatinsectquest)

We provide you with tents (you can bring your own if preferred), all meals and non-alcoholic beverages while you're with us, transporatation between our campsite and survey sites, all entomological equipment, and guided excursions.
