Pond Exploration at The Preserve Set for Sunday

We'll investigate the pond with nets, buckets, and magnifying lenses.

The next family nature event is Pond Exploration, Sunday from 11 a.m.-12 p.m. at Sands Point Preserve.

The Preserve’s freshwater pond is a perfect habitat for birds, reptiles, amphibians, mammals, and insects that are all particularly active in the summer months. We’ll spend an hour getting our hands dirty as we explore the site with nets, buckets, and magnifying lenses. For your own close up view, bring a clean take-out container (preferably white) to collect specimens – we’ll have some to share.  Wear footwear that can get wet and muddy!

Admission: $10 per car / free with Annual Pass.

Pre-registration is recommended - please email your name and the number of children and adult participants to info@friendsspp.org.
