EPN June Breakfast Club

Jun 11, 2015, 7:00am - 9:30am

Still harboring an inferiority complex that Central Ohio’s outdoor places don’t stack up nationally?  Then attend this breakfast and exorcize that notion forever!

  • Breakfast at the highly engaging new Nature Center, featuring a 53-foot long stream on a table and more.
  • What’s new and planned in our Columbus and Franklin County Metro Parks – Larry Peck, Assistant Director and widely recognized parks and recreation leader
  • Darby Creek natural and social history highlights – renowned naturalist Mac Albin

Then choose your dessert:

  • natural history walk along Darby Creek, with a chance to get your feet wet and see creek critters up close, or
  • naturalist walk to see a herd of bison and learn the role they played on Ohio’s prairies, not that long ago

Presenters:
Larry Peck, Deputy Director, Columbus and Franklin County Metro Parks and Lecturer, OSU School of Environment and Natural Resources
 
Mac Albin, Naturalist, Battelle Darby Creek Metro Park
