Night of the Amphibians (family-friendly) – April 4

April 4, 2025 Friday at 6:30 pm

What better way to welcome spring than to wade in the waters of our glacial pond in search of the season’s first choristers: Spring Peepers, Chorus frogs and Wood frogs. Maybe we’ll find a Leopard frog or American toad! This is a great evening event for families to learn about, catch and release frogs! Bring your wading boots and dress for the weather.   The trail walk to the Glacial Pond is approximately one mile round trip.

Fee: $6/per Dahlem member; $8/per non-member …. Member Family $20, and Non-member Family $25 (Family resides in the same household)

What to Bring: a flashlight to carry in your coat pocket.  Our goal is to use our night vision just as our nocturnal creatures do to venture through the night and let our other senses direct us on the trails.
