Prairie Rescue Work Day April 9, 2011

Hitchcock Nature Center- Held in conjunction with the "Tallgrass Prairie-Past, Present and Future" traveling exhibit that Hitchcock will be hosting this spring, this is the perfect opportunity for you to help preserve native habitats. Join our Natural Areas Management staff for a morning of prairie restoration. We'll be cutting brush that is invading into a remnant prairie on Badger Ridge. Staff will provide tools, including bow saws and loppers. Please bring gloves, a water bottle and if you have saws or loppers of your own, feel free to bring them. All ages are welcome to attend. Please feel free to stay the entire morning or assist for an hour or two. Meet at the Loess Hills Lodge & come dressed for the weather.
