 June 20 Farm & Forage Day Cancelled due to Weather
It’s with no small amount of regret that we must announce
the cancellation of Saturday’s Family Farm and Forage Day at Riverside, the
Farnsley-Moremen Landing. The
forecasters are in agreement that what we’ll have on Saturday is an all-day
rain. As we’ve invited presenters from across the state of Kentucky to
participate in this, our inaugural event, it’s a lot to expect them to come and
spend their time in those conditions.
The good news is we’ve already set a date for next year.
Family Farm and Forage Day will return on Saturday, June 18, 2016. With an extra
year to plan, our goal is to make it bigger and better!
We apologize for the inconvenience. Please visit www.riverside-landing.org for the latest
programming at the site. Our next event is the popular Ice Cream Social on July
12 – see you there!

 Summer
Adventure Camps at Jefferson Memorial Forest
Looking for something fun and educational for your kids this
summer? Try one of the summer camps at the Forest! Each camp provides children
an immersion experience in the natural world. They take on the roles of
naturalist, scientist, and explorer as they discover new things about the
forest, and the creatures that inhabit it. By combining educational activities
and learning experiences with traditional summer camp fun, your child has an
educational adventure they will remember for a lifetime. Camp activities
include nature study, crafts, science experiments, games, journaling, hikes and
animal contact with the Forest’s education animals.
Each
session runs for one week, with days beginning promptly at 9:00 a.m. and
ending at 4:00 p.m. Each of these camps are for ages 7 to 12. Special camps for
teens ages 13 to 15, and youngsters ages 5 to 6 are also offered.
