SUMMARY:Fireflies on the Prairie (Be a Scientist)
DESCRIPTION:Fireflies at Prairie Ridge. Photo: Karen Swain/NCMNS. \nThe fireflies can be so beautiful over the prairie! Join us for this program for an introduction to fireflies followed by firefly observation and an up close look at these amazing insects. We’ll also collect data for the Firefly Watch citizen science project\, so you’ll help contribute data to an important national project! \nThis program is for ages 8+ and costs $3 per person for Museum members or $5 per person for non-members. All children must be accompanied by a paying adult. Each attendee will take home a magnifier box and handouts that will help you explore fireflies in your own neighborhood!  Pre-registration/payment is required. Register online here. \nPlease wear closed toed shoes and long pants to this program. Use caution if wearing bug spray so that you keep it off your hands. Bring a flashlight – it will get dark before the program is over! Also bring a filled water bottle.  The Outdoor Classroom is open to the outdoors\, but masks are encouraged during our time in the space as we may not be able to fully socially distance. \nWe will meet in the Outdoor Classroom\, a 3-5 minute walk from the parking lot\, and will start promptly at 8pm. The gate to the parking lot will open at 7:45pm\, so please plan accordingly so that you are not blocking the road or emergency vehicle access to the grounds.
