Join us at the Montville Conservation Center for a guided walk at 10:30am. You will learn about the history of the site and identify plants and other natural features. There will also be a family friendly scavenger hunt with limited prizes available. Participants can explore the Conservation Center at their own pace to complete the scavenger hunt which will run from 10:00-12:00pm. We will hold the event as planned if there is light rain. Severe weather will shift the event to June 8th, same time, same place. This event is sponsored by the Montville Conservation Commission.
