National Wildlife Day

Since 2005, National Wildlife Day (February 22nd and September 4th) has brought awareness to the challenges facing endangered animals on a national and global scale. This holiday educates the public about conservation and teaches us how we can help preserve our planet’s animals.

Take time to enjoy the outdoors today by visiting the 2-acre historic garden at Macculloch Hall Historical Museum. Bring along a pencil and Garden Scavenger Hunt #3 for extra fun in the garden! What animals do you think you will find?
