Just as the summer is starting to cool off we are going to explore the outdoors! Come join us at Northerly Island Park for a guided tour with experts on local plants and animals. We may even be able to catch some species during their fall migration to the south! Starting at the visitor center, we will go on a 45-minute walk down Northerly Island and hear about the history of the area, both natural and human-made. All ages are welcome!
