This program requires pre-registration. Please register at the link below.

How do you tell the difference between a tiger and a leopard? Or a dragonfly and a butterfly? Come learn about how scientists tell organisms apart using a tool called a dichotomous key – and how to make your own!

This program is for ages 8+ and will be conducted entirely outdoors.  Please dress for the weather, wear closed toed shoes, and bring water.  We will meet near the tall brick Chimney Swift tower in the center of the parking lot. Prairie Ridge will be closed to visitors during this program. The gate to the road will open at 9:50am and close at 10:05am.
