SMALL GROUP
SIGN-UP CONTINUES

The following groups are still taking sign-ups:

GROUP: Nature, Art and the Great Outdoors

Facilitator : Kate Peresie, kperesie@gmail.com

About : If you like to be outdoors, would like to learn more about nature through observation, can use a pen or pencil to make marks on a page, are able to walk on trails, and like hanging out with other nature-lovers, then give the GNC Nature Journaling Club a try! This group is open to all ages!!

When & Where : Come and try it out. Our next meeting is THIS Saturday, October 14, 10:00 - 12:00 (or so) at the Ohio Bird Sanctuary , 3774 Orweiler Rd., Mansfield, OH 44903. We will hit the trails when we get there at 10:00. Then, starting at 11:00, the Sanctuary's raptors will be tethered along one of the trails (for their Fall Festival which starts at 11:00) providing an excellent opportunity to observe, draw, and/or take photos of them. My understanding is that there will be food for sale, too, for the festival. FYI--Millsboro Road is closed between Rudy Road and Bowers Road. For complete details, please contact Kate at the email above.
