This week for Catskill Mountain Kids, join us at the Catskills Visitor Center in welcoming DEC Biologist Emily Carrollo in a program all about wildlife, tracks and tracking, bears, and how animals survive a Catskills winter. The program will include a walk on the nature trails at the Visitor Center. Prepare for a short hike with layers, shoes with traction, and a water bottle!

Catskill Mountain Kids is a year-round weekly daytime program series that celebrates the nature, history and culture of the Catskills. Each session will include some focused learning time, hands-on activities, and outdoor exploration. The program is geared for ages 4-7 but all are welcome. Please dress for the weather/being outside and the possibility of getting messy.

The Fall session will run for 6 weeks and include programs on seasonal themes - more details will be added as the dates get closer. We’d love to see families come back every week, but you can also feel free to pick & choose the dates that work for you. Please note the Fall 2019 session will meet on Saturdays.

Suggested weekly donation: $2/child (max of $5/family), members free. Donations support the ongoing programs and operations of the Catskills Visitor Center, a program of the Catskill Center nonprofit organization.
