Gather around a campfire at one of your favorite parks this fall for a series of engaging and informative chats. Each week Park Rangers and local experts will lead discussions on a different theme, exploring topics about conservation, history, culture, music, and more. Bring a portable camp chair and share s’mores and stories by the fire, or sit back, relax, and enjoy the evening.
This week: Have you ever wondered what the difference between a turtle and a tortoise is? Why is the UMD mascot a terrapin and not a crab? What are box turtle surveys? If so, come out to Beverly Triton Nature Park to enjoy an evening of s’mores on the shore of the Chesapeake Bay while Ranger Victor illuminates the hidden worlds of our local carapace companions.
A $5.00 registration fee covers program costs. S’mores supplies will be provided. For more information please contact Park Ranger Nick Shearman at rpshea23@aacounty.org.
