7:30pm-9:00pm
How do your nighttime senses compare to those of the nocturnal animals at NCNC?
Come find out! Join us for an interactive sensory night hike adventure and try your hand at our naturalist-led challenges. First, we’ll put your night vision to the test to discover if you can see as well as an owl in the dark. Then we’ll focus on your sense of smell, hearing, and touch! This program will also include the opportunity to meet a couple of the nature center’s nocturnal animal ambassadors up close and personal. We’ll wrap up the night with one of our favorite summer activities… roasting marshmallows around the campfire!
Price: $15/person
