Autumn is an exciting time to explore the West Eugene Wetlands with your family. “WREN’s Family Exploration Days provide children of all ages the opportunity to investigate the wonders of the great outdoors,” said Susanna Hamilton, WREN Staff & Volunteer Coordinator and Environmental Educator. “It’s an opportunity to learn and play in the wild places that exist within the City of Eugene.”
This family
program is FREE to the public and provides unstructured observation, education,
and inspiration in our surrounding natural spaces. WREN staff and volunteers will be on
hand to check-out nature exploration equipment (backpacks containing field
guides, hand magnifiers, bug boxes, as well as bug nets, macroinvertebrate/pond
dipping supplies, and binoculars) and provide guidance for independent
exploration of the wonders in the wetlands.
Participants are asked to meet at the pull-off located north of Barger Drive, at the intersection of Golden Gardens Street and Jessen Drive. Participants should bring water and wear sturdy shoes. WREN will provide binoculars.
