Night at the Nature Center
Visitors take an after-hours walk through the nature center's Exhibit Hall to watch the critters come to life and meet fun talking animals. Children can gather around a campfire to make s’mores and sip apple cider, work on a craft, and listen to a not-so-scary Halloween story. Guests are encouraged to bring a trick-or-treat bag and wear a costume.
