December's topic: Winter Solstice Celebration
The Winter Solstice is Sunday, December 21, so we will celebrate on Friday! We will talk about the science behind the annual solstices, take a walk through our luminary-lit woods, enjoy some hot chocolate and s'mores around the yule log! All ages are invited to attend!

  • Program will be held outside as weather permits, with a luminary walk through the woods, so dress accordingly. In case of bad weather, program will be held mostly inside the Lakeside Nature Center building.
  • $5 per person or $15 per family (register each person individually and discount will be automatically applied) 
  • Registration ends Thursday, December 18
  • Pre-registration is required for each individual participant.

Join us for our Nature at Night evening nature program, typically held the last Friday of the month but dates and start times may vary depending on topic. 

All ages are welcome to this family-friendly program, with parent supervision; remember that it will be dark and we will walk through the woods.
