All Events

It’s the time of year when the haunts come out to play at the Center. Come learn about some of nature’s spooky and misunderstood animals–costumes encouraged! We’ll bust myths about them and share their true ecological importance. The day’s activities include:

Meeting live animal ambassadors in our Great Hall, including snakes, tarantulas, turtles, and raptor ambassadors
Voting for your favorite of our costumed taxidermy animals
Hiking our trails, stopping at the pavilion, tower, and maple grove to play games and make crafts.

After visiting all of the stations, children will receive a sweet treat!

Arrive anytime within the 5-hour program and go at your own pace on this self-guided adventure. When you arrive, check in at the Stone Bench in front of our Visitor Center to receive your spooky station guide! This event will take place indoors and outdoors, rain or shine. Parking is included. We recommend arriving before 2:00pm to have enough time to complete the entire program.

This program is designed for all ages. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Members: $12 per person | Non-Members: $18 per person | Children 2 & under are free.
