This program is appropriate for all ages. 

Every spring, Spotted Salamanders can be found making their way toward fresh water to mate and lay their eggs. In this program we will learn about the different types of salamanders found in our area, and how hard it is to survive as a salamander making its way from the forest to the swamp. We will end our program with a hike in search of these incredible amphibians.

Please note that this program includes a one mile hike on uneven terrain and is not stroller-friendly.
