Creatures of the Night at Limberlost April 25
The public is welcome to visit Loblolly Pavilion in the Loblolly Marsh Nature Preserve on Friday, April 25 to learn about the creatures that roam the Limberlost when the sun goes down.  
Those attending will take a night hike in the woods to search for “glowing eyes.” Listen for and learn the frog calls of the marsh. Discover nocturnal underwater creatures with a dip-netting activity.  
There will be amphibians on display and a live animal presentation. Finish off the night with a campfire and marshmallow roasting. Be sure to bring a flashlight along.
The event begins at 8:30 p.m. Cost is $3 per person for ages 4 and older (no toddlers please).  
The Loblolly Marsh parking lot is located at 8323N-  250W, which is a half-mile north of Ind. 18 on Jay County road 250W, 3.5 miles west of Bryant.
