16th Annual Enchanted Forest
10/20/2017 -
The 16th annual Enchanted Forest is a safe, fun, and educational alternative to traditional ‘trick-or-treating’. Visitors will be able to take a moonlit hike through the Olin Nature Preserve, while learning about the various animals that live on TNI’s property. Student volunteers from all over the area will assist with this program by wearing friendly costumes of nocturnal animals and hand out treats while others lead visitors along the Enchanted Forest trail to each costumed animal. The evening ends with snacks and crafts around the campfire at Talahi Lodge. Dress up in a costume or come as you are. There’s fun for the whole family. Pre-registration is required. Registration can be made here: http://www.thenatureinstitute.org/events/16th-annual-enchanted-forest-2/ Tickets are $5.00 per person, which includes treats, crafts and games.
