New Moon Firefly Campfire at Elkhorn Biodiversity Preserve 7:30 pm

New Moon Firefly Campfire at our Elkhorn Creek Biodiversity Preserve at 7:30 p.m. Join us for a great light show above and below! First we’ll take a stroll to observe resident birds and blooming plants. The campfire begins at 8:00 p.m., with s’mores provided. We hope to see an impressive display of both fireflies and stars. Bring a lawn chair, flashlight, insect repellent and, if desired, water.
