Please be on time so you aren't left behind! After the morning hikes, we'll gather at WWC headquarters, the Kirby Nature Center and Preserve, at noon for lunch. Artists Ann Geise and Sally Sisson Anderson will have wildlife artwork and other items for sale, along with native plants for purchase by Scott Peak of Wildscapes. After lunch some will depart for the afternoon wildflower hikes that will leave from the preserves promptly at 2:00 pm. You are welcome to hang out at Kirby for the rest of the afternoon, and visit the Bluebird trail, learn about the native butterfly garden, and walk the trails on your own. Your generous donations enables us to preserve and protect precious habitat along the Ohio River valley. If you choose not to hike, you can still take part by joining us for lunch. Everyone is welcome! Please keep your e-ticket and bring with you to the event!
