Family Guided Night Hike
Hitchcock Nature Center, Pottawattamie County
Saturday, November 17, 2018
Join us at Hitchcock Nature Center on Saturday, November 17th at 6:00 p.m. for a guided night hike as we explore Hitchcock Nature Center and the Loess Hills in the dark. This program is being presented as part of our family education program and we ask that participants be families with children under age 18.
This fun family event is perfect for our young learners. Join in the fun and discover the world of the five senses. Discover all the ways animals have adapted their senses to survive in the dark. This short hike will explore these adaptations and give guests the opportunity to test their own sense skills in the outdoors.
