Homeschool @ Rockrimmon: Wonders of Wildlife Thu., May 9 at 1:30 p.m. City of Colorado Springs Park Ranger, Stephanie Fields, will take us on a guided walk in Ute Valley Park and discuss the Wonders of Wildlife in Colorado. Open to all ages, keeping in mind that we will be hiking on trails that may not be stroller-friendly. DO NOT COME TO THE LIBRARY. Meet at the parking lot off Ute Valley Trail Road. The turn for that parking lot, if going west on Rockrimmon Blvd., is right after the Springs Marriott Hotel. In case of inclement weather, we WILL meet at the Rockrimmon Lirbary for a modified wildlife program without the hike. Plan for about one hour of walking with stops along the way. Wear good shoes and don't forget the water and sunscreen. |
