Nature lovers are invited to join us for a monthly book club focused on nature and wildlife! Each month, we’ll
read a selected book and then gather at the Great Plains Nature Center for a discussion, accompanied by a
bonus nature walk when weather permits.
Let your imagination thrive as we explore our surroundings both
on the page and in the great outdoors. Club members can enjoy discounted book purchases at the Owl’s
Nest Gift Shop. No registration or purchase is required to participate! Please note that July and December
meetings are on second Fridays.
