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.

Get a “feel” for natural items. The next hike nature series will be “Rubbings.” This event will be held at Dog Creek Park. Meet the naturalist in the south parking lot. Hike up the hill stopping at various locations to capture some textures as you walk. The hike will be held on Tuesday, July 7 from 2:00 until 5:00 p.m.

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.
