Knee-high Naturalist Program at Richard Bong State Recreation Area
Program is offered on the 2nd Thursday of every month—10am-11:30am. Pre-registration is required as space is limited. Please call (262) 878-5600. We ask that you please cancel if you know you can not come.
Knee-high Naturalist is for 3-5 year olds and a grown-up in their life and younger siblings are welcome. Our goal is to provide environmental education through stories, crafts, hiking and playing outdoors.
We always plan to be outside so please dress accordingly! Program will always go on but sometimes the topic will change due to weather issues.
Programs are free but you will need a State Park admission sticker.
