The Brockway Wee Explorers Program is coming back! Join New Hampshire Audubon at the John Brockway Nature Preserve in Hopkinton to explore nature with your 3-5 year old. For our fall series, programs will be held on the first and third Wednesday of every month from October to December. Each program has an exciting theme regarding wildlife, nature, or the seasons. Programs will begin at 10 a.m. and last about 45 minutes each.
October 2: Senses in Nature
October 16: Leaves, Wonderful Leaves
November 6: Log Jam
November 20: Turkey Talk
December 4: Busy Beavers
December 18: Needles, Cones, and Evergreens
This is an outdoor location with no bathroom facilities. Please dress children for the weather and be ready to walk on the trail, sit on logs and the ground, and dig in the dirt!
Programs will be cancelled if poor weather is predicted during the program time; participants will be notified by email of cancellations.
To find the meeting circle, park at the Brockway Nature Preserve parking area along Farrington Corners Road in Hopkinton, then follow the entrance trail across the bridge to the circle. For detailed directions, search for Brockway Pond on Google Maps, or visit this webpage.
This program is free, with a suggested donation of $5. Thanks to an endowment from Dorothy Brockway Osborne, this program is free for Hopkinton Residents.
Maximum: 10 children
