We are so excited for the 2024 season!
We’ve been busy over the winter planning new events and displays for the 2024 season. We are very excited about our first annual Monarch Fest happening in September! We are looking for sponsors, vendors, and education tables, please contact us if you’re interested. There will be games, food, music, and of course Monarch tagging! We are also excited to unveil our new snake display this year. We’ll be adding three native snakes to our ambassadors, which we cannot wait to introduce to visitors! There are a lot of great events this summer as well, so make sure to plan your trip to see all the exciting new things at the Nature & Wildlife Center in 2024!
As always, we strive to be an educational resource for our community near and far. We have developed some resources to help families with fun activities to do while at home as well as educational resources for kids (and adults!), and are working on more. If there are any other ways we can be a helpful resource to the community, please contact us and let us know. If you want to volunteer to help the Nature & Wildlife Center, please reach out as we are always looking for help within the community. We sincerely appreciate any and all support you can provide, whether it’s donations, volunteering, or even just liking and sharing our social media pages and posts! Thank you to our amazing community, we appreciate all of you more than we can say!
We work hard to keep our expenses to a minimum, but as always, we rely on donations to help support our educational programs and operating costs. We are also still seeking donations to help with the new displays. You can help by sponsoring a display (contact us at leinwc@gmail.com for more details), purchasing an item for the Nature & Wildlife Center off our Amazon Wish List, or sponsoring a yearly expense. For other ways to help, click here. If you would like to donate online, you can do so through PayPal using a PayPal account or credit card.
