Please join us for a guided hike under the Sturgeon Moon at Dark Moon Preserve on August 1 at 9:00 PM.

We invite you to bring your family - both furry and non-furry. Space is limited for this hike. Advance registration is required. There is a suggested donation of $5 for this event.

Necessities: Please remember to bring a flashlight to guide your way as needed. Horses, ticks, and all forms of wildlife enjoy this preserve. Like any good meadow ramble, we may encounter mud, water, and muck. Warm clothing, sturdy boots, and a towel for wiping shoes down for the car ride home are highly recommended.

Dogs: If bringing a dog, please bring waste disposal bags. All dogs are required to be on leashes no longer than 6 feet. There must be one human companion for each dog. Dogs must be socialized for people and other dogs.
