New Programs in the Park!
Bird Walk with Ruth Pfeffer

Sunday, May 4, 8-10am
In The Park!

The Friends of High School Park will kick off their programs in the park with a Bird Walk, led by local birding expert Ruth Pfeffer. It’s the perfect time to view our resident birds preparing to pair-up and our migratory birds returning from southern wintering areas. Wear comfortable shoes, bring binoculars if you have them (we’ll have a few on hand) and meet at the shed, located near the intersection of High School Road and Montgomery Avenue. The event will take place unless there are extreme weather conditions.

This is a free event, sponsored by the Friends of High School Park.
