232402 - Winterfest/Cookout
The weather may be frightful, but there’s still plenty to do at the Nature Center! Join us for a fun filled day of snow related games and activities. We will have a short discussion and demonstration about how different cultures around the world survive the freezing elements, followed by a snow building/survival contest (weather permitting) to see if you and your family could survive the cold! If
you need a minute to warm yourself, we will have a warm fire going in our fire ring. Guests are welcome to bring food and snacks and we will provide a limited number of roasting sticks. Enjoy winter inspired crafts and hot chocolate inside the building.
NOTE: Winter Fest will still be held in the absence of snow, though the programming may be altered.

232452 - Winter Hike
Dress warm and bring your hiking poles and binoculars to join us in a brisk nature walk to hopefully see and definitely learn about the animals that don’t settle down for a long
winter’s nap. We will search for signs, tracks, and be able to identify scat that our cold-tolerant friends leave behind. Of course, inside the center we will have winter animal crafts
and activities for those of us who are not so cold tolerant.

Join us as we participate in our yearly contribution to the Macomb County Audubon Society’s Annual Christmas Bird Count. All skill levels are welcome. The day will include basic information on bird identification and ways to attract and
observe winter birds. Participants will gather data while watching
the feeders behind the Center, and may choose to take part in
multiple hikes around the park to observe as many of our winter
bird species as possible throughout the day. The Nature Center
has a limited number of binoculars so please bring your own if
you have them!
