The Family Nature Challenge culminates with a Virtually Wild Live Animal program Thursday, Aug. 27, at 6:30 p.m. via Zoom, where participants will meet animals that connect with the challenges.
Program cost is $25 per family for members and $30 per family for non-members. Upon registration participants will receive a link to the private Family Nature Challenge website.
