Darke County Parks
Woodpecker
Wonder at March Park P.A.L.S.
Darke County Park District invites children in kindergarten through 2nd
grade to join them on March 19th from 9:30am to noon to discover
woodpeckers during Park P.A.L.S! This month everyone will meet at the
Nature Center on St. Rt. 502 west of Greenville to wonder at the world
of woodpeckers. Students will wander the trails as they discover which
woodpeckers call Darke County home. They’ll learn why the forest needs
these wonderful birds and the unique feathers they use for survival.
Students are encouraged to bring binoculars if they have them. If not,
they can also borrow a pair from the nature center.
Park P.A.L.S. is a series of monthly programs designed for students of
this age group who are interested in nature. P.A.L.S. stands for
Practicing And Learning Stewardship, and its mission is to develop
future earth stewards through meaningful educational opportunities and
hands-on experiences in the natural world. A fee of $3 is charged for
the program, and preregistration is required. For any questions about
the Park P.A.L.S. program or any other Park District programs or to
register for the March class, please call the Nature Center at (937)
548-0165.
