Lace up your hiking boots and come out to Poliak Preserve on Saturday, April 18th!

Guided by our Vice President, Kevin Tschudi, this excursion will take us on a brief stroll through the forest, leading us to a beaver dam along the Saugatuck River. Hopefully, we will witness some beaver activity, but if not, we will at least get to admire the architectural prowess of this keystone species.

Use the link in our bio to register by Thursday, April 16th at 4pm! Spots are limited.
