Lots of critters stay active all winter long and their daily activities leave many clues behind revealing who they are and what they are up to. The trick is to know where to look, and how to find out “who goes there� and why. This hands-on indoor/outdoor program will be held on Sunday, February 2, from 1:30 to 3:00 pm. Kids will be able to construct their own winter tracking guide to take home with them.

The cost of the program is $8 per person, with a $3 discount for members of the New Jersey Audubon Society. The price includes one chaperone per child. Pre-registration is required as space is limited. To register mail your name, address, phone number, the number of participants and payment to: NJAS’ Weis Ecology Center, 150 Snake Den Road, Ringwood, NJ 07456.
