Prospect Ponds Environmental Learning Center

I have to give a big I AM SO SORRY!! I forgot to give specific directions to where we were meeting at Prospect Ponds and really really sorry for any mix ups!!!

It was though another wonderful day out with the tribe!!
Off we go on the fun bridge at the ELC starting our hike!!

Something always fun to do with sticks!!!

They were watching the caretakers put the Vultures back after they had been fed and got to stretch.

Good-bye Hugs and Happy Trails,

August 25th- Nature walk. We will be meeting at Prospect Ponds at 9am . We will walk to The Environmental Learning Center. Then we will take the nature walk there. We can also visit the Rapture cages. You can meet at 10am at the ELC only. The walk to the ELC is stoller friendly but the nature walk is not. We can lock up our strollers together if need be.
