Signs of Autumn at New River Birding & Nature Center

FREE fun for the entire family!

The New River Birding & Nature Center at Wolf Creek Park has initiated "Second Saturdays," a series of public programs to be held the second Saturday of each month throughout the year, led by the Center's Consulting Director, educator and naturalist Bill Hilton Jr.

The "Second Saturday" event for September 11 will be a public field trip, 8-11 a.m.: "Signs of Autumn at New River Birding & Nature Center: Migrant Birds, Fall Wildflowers, and Last-minute Pollinators."

"Our mission is to get information out to the public so that they know both the joys and whys of preserving our environment and the habitats we share with birds, mammals and plants," Fayette County Education Fund president Dave Pollard stated. "The overall vision is one which will take some time to come to fruition, but we have developed some exceptional programming and it is our intention to share it with the community." "Second Saturday" events are free and open to the public. Wolf Creek Park is located in Fayette County on RT 16 near Appalachian Drive, adjacent to US-19. Drive into WCP on Nick Rahall Greenway; turn left down the graveled road toward the New River Birding & Nature Center site and Wetlands Boardwalk.
