Calling all kids ages 9 through 18 who care about wildlife! Try your hand at field research, develop your naturalist skills, and do something to help the wild animals of our world by counting critters with the Harris Center.

In July, help scientists find out more about monarch butterflies by counting monarch eggs, caterpillars, and butterflies with the Harris Center’s team of naturalists at a milkweed patch in Peterborough. If you like treasure hunts and have a sharp eye for finding things, this morning is for you! Be sure to check out our other Kids Count for Wildlife events, too.

9 to 10 a.m. in Peterborough. Exact meeting location will be provided upon registration. Children under the age of 12 need to be accompanied by an interested family member. All others can attend without parental supervision. Rain date: July 29. Space is limited, and registration is required.
