opportunities, and Darke County Parks invites you to the join them. On
November 21st at 5:30pm join a naturalist at Shawnee Prairie Preserve

flashlight if you choose. In the event of cloudy skies, call the Nature

The Full Moon in November is named after beavers who build their winter
dams at this time of year. It is also called Frost Moon and Mourning
Moon, depending on the winter solstice.
