Participants in the National Park Service Outer Banks Group’s Preschool Young Naturalist Program recently designed their own walking sticks (pictured below) before heading out on the nature trail behind the National Wildlife Refuges Visitor Center on Roanoke Island.
The program meets year-round every Friday from 10 to 11am and is free.
For information on the program, you can contact Cindy Heffley at 252-475-4180.
