This Week at the Preserve

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

As the earth slows down and tucks in, so does the Preserve. We wish you special times with family and friends during this season and hope that it includes some respite for you and yours. We're making plans, though, for the spring and summer. Come back after the new year for programming news -- along with Saplings and summer camp registration information.

Looking ahead to 2025!

We'll see you again on February 4 for the start of the 2025  Saplings, a pre-K program for 2-5 year olds! We can't wait to dive into the wonders of nature at the Bunker Interpretive Center then. Each week, explore new adventures with us on Tuesdays and Thursdays in February through April. Registration will open in January.
