Wildflower Walks at Moraine Hills led by Stacy Iwanicki, the park naturalist for both Moraine Hills State Park and Volo Bog, |
||||
|
was a popular and very educational program at the Park. Now the walks have been expanded to Volo Bog as well, but they |
||||
|
are now called Moraine Meanders and Bog Saunters, and cover all aspects of nature. At Volo Bog walks are scheduled for the |
||||
|
first Saturday of odd months, and the first Sunday of even months. At Moraine Hills it is the fourth Saturday of every month. |
