2025 Preserve @ Play: Wee Wonders

ABOUT PRESERVE @ PLAY

The Preserve’s 4th annual Preserve @ Play welcomes back our community on Saturday, June 28. The event was inspired by our youngest changemakers, with nature-play activities and discovery opportunities for children and their families to enjoy.

Activities will be offered from 11 am – 3 pm, scattered throughout the Preserve’s exhibits and trails.
From 3 to 4 pm, enjoy a wildlife presentation by Aark Wildlife at The Captain James Moore Pavilion. 

 This year’s theme is Wee Wonders as we celebrate the smallest creatures and the BIG impact they have on our thriving ecosystem. 

Look forward to games, woodland crafts, sensory exploration, Travelin’ Dogs food truck, live music by Lolly Hopwood, a wildlife demonstration by Aark Wildlife snf the traveling exhibit Pennsylvania WoodMobile.  Enjoy hiking trails, children’s discovery areas (R.O.T. Plot and Sycamore Hollows), our new Storybook Trail and more.
