“The Outside Book” Author Reading

Join us as local author Jess Pallister-Dew visits us for a reading of her book “The Outside Book” on July 26 from 11am-12pm. Jess will read her book which inspires people of all ages to head outside and explore all the wonder that nature has to offer. Our staff will then take participants on a small exploration of our site and complete a craft related to the book. Jess will also have copies of her books available for purchase and she will do a book signing for those interested.

Best of all? This event is FREE to inspire as many people as possible to enjoy the outdoors with us. When registering, please register only the active participants (i.e. children, not adults).
