Firefly Viewing Night

Come celebrate the beauty of Iowa summer nights with Allamakee County Conservation at Waterville Farm 55 Park on Friday, June 27th at 8:30 P.M. The evening will commence with a short stroll around one of the parks reconstructed prairies at dusk, after which we will watch the fireflies under the dark Driftless skies. The walk will be under a mile, but may be on uneven ground and sturdy closed-toe shoes are recommended.

No preregistration required. Waterville Farm 55 Park can be found at 938 White Pine Road just outside of Waterville Iowa. Cell phone service is limited in the area, so be sure you know your route before you arrive. Picnic tables and seating are available in the shelter house, but a folding chair is recommended for optimal firefly viewing. All ages are welcome. Dogs must be leashed at all times.

A full schedule of upcoming events hosted by the Allamakee County Conservation Board and the Driftless Area Education and Visitors Center is available by following the ACCB on Facebook. To register or to receive more information on this event or any event you can call the ACCB at (563)538-0403.
