Long Chicago winters provide lots of time for musing about the growing season and summer recreation. Winter also plays host to many events that remind us that spring will soon be upon us. The following events are some of FNA's recommended favorites:
- Fermilab's Education Office Family Open House, February 27, 1-5 p.m., at Fermilab
- Wild Things Conference, March 5, 8 a.m. - 5 p.m., University of Illinois at Chicago. FNA's Tom Peterson describes this conference as high-energy with lots of grass-roots folk, with topical tracks ranging from climate change to birds to natural history.
- Illinois Butterfly Monitoring Network (IBMN) annual workshop, March 12, 9:30 a.m. - 3 p.m., Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum
- Bartlett Nature Center's Earth Day celebration, April 30, noon - 4 p.m., James "Pate" Philip State Park
If you are interested in representing FNA at either the Fermilab Family Open House or the Earth Day celebration in Bartlett, please send us an email. Thanks!
