Wild for You! - A Valentine's Date Night

Join us this Valentine's Day for an unforgettable evening celebrating wild love and nature! After meeting our animal ambassadors, we will begin the evening with a delicious catered meal, featuring a vegetarian option. After dinner, participants will enjoy an interactive program exploring the fascinating reproduction of native species.

After dinner, take a romantic moon lit stroll through the prairie. Snowshoes will be provided for added fun, and halfway through the hike, you'll pause to warm up by a cozy bonfire while enjoying a classic s'more treat.
