HOLDERNESS — The Squam Lakes Natural Science Center invites families to stroll along the Squam Channel as they read "Mr. McGinty’s Monarchs" by Linda Vander Heyden, posted one page at a time along the trail, during a StoryWalk installation coming this summer. Follow along to see if Mr. McGinty can come up with a plan to save the monarch caterpillars after their milkweed has been mowed down. The StoryWalk will be up and available daily from Friday, June 27 through Monday, Sept. 1.

During an opening reception at 10 a.m. on Friday, June 27, children can participate in a craft and enjoy a snack connected to the story at Curry Place.

There is no cost to attend the reception or the daily StoryWalk, and no reservations are required.

The StoryWalk is a partnership with Curry Place, Holderness Library, Squam Lakes Association and Holderness Recreation Department. For more information, visit nhnature.org.
