RECENTLY UPDATED TIME FOR THIS EVENT.

PLEASE NOTE THE TIME OF THIS EVENT CORRESPONDS WITH THE DEPARTURE OF THE BATS FROM THE BAT HOUSES.

Children ages 3 to 5 years old and an accompanying adult are invited to learn about bats and their important role in the environment around us. Big Naturalist and environmental educator Eileen Gerle leads this hour-long program that includes story time and a nature hike to the Venice Rookery bat houses to watch the bats leave at sundown to forage for insects.

Children are asked to wear sturdy, closed footwear and to bring a water bottle.  Insect repellent is recommended.   Registration is limited to ensure a small group experience.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact Eileen Gerle at eileengerle@gmail.com.
