Geauga Park District home
       

Just imagine the silent majority in our forests: the millions of tiny critters living on the forest floor. Well you don't have to imagine anymore – Naturalist John Kolar wants to show you some basic tools he and your other Geauga Park District naturalists use to study those little guys, their life cycles and their habitats, all tools you can easily find at home. Ah, springtime...a great time for exploration, naturalist-style!

Speaking of exploration, allow Scout Out Your Parks to guide your adventures this spring at Beartown Lakes Reservation, Observatory Park, The Rookery and Burton Wetlands Nature Preserve. Even if you've never done it before, download the tracker before your next park visit – it's so much fun, you may just end up visiting all four parks to earn your exclusive spring patch!
