Families with children ages 6 & under are invited to join us for the 11:00 a.m. session of the Children's Maple Tree Tap event at Botna Bend Park on March 3rd. This special maple tree tapping program geared toward younger learners & their parents.
Three program sessions will be offered on March 3rd, participants are asked to choose either the 9:00 a.m. session, 10:00 a.m. session, or 11:00 a.m. session. Each session will last approximately 45 minutes. We ask that only families with children age 6 & under attend this program. If you are a family with older children or adults interested in maple tree tapping you are invited to attend our all ages event instead.
