The O’Brien County Conservation Board is looking forward to hosting guided/self-guided experiences at our parks this summer.  Public programming will be taking on a new look this summer.  Join the naturalist for a different kind of outdoor fun.

The first event will be “Basic Birds.”  It will be held at Mill Creek Park on Tuesday, June 2 from 8:00 until 10:30 a.m.  Participants are encouraged to bring binoculars, if they have them.  This program will help participants learn about bird identification by sight and sound.

Meet that naturalist by the dam at any point between these hours.  The naturalist will welcome you and your group to give you an introduction and instructions.  Your group must not include more than ten participants.  Take-home materials will be provided, and stations will be marked along the trail for your enjoyment.  If at any point, your group encounters another along the trail, please announce your presence and allow a safe passing distance.

The naturalist looks forward to helping you enjoy and explore the outdoors.  Families are encouraged to attend together.  Look forward to more of these types of programs during Summer 2020.
