June 4, 2022 is the 30th annual American Hiking Society’s National Trails Day®, which is all about exploring local or state trail systems and spending more time outdoors. On June 4 at 6:00 p.m., Amboy 4-H Environmental Education Center will be holding a National Trails Day Hike around the nature center for outdoor explorers of all ages. The group will embark on a late spring, evening hike to discover what the woodland trails have to offer as it starts to turn into night. Participants may catch a glimpse of the notorious beavers working on their dams along the Beaver Marsh Trail, hear spring peepers calling out to one another, or see waterfowl flying in and hunkering down for the night. Before heading out to the trail, the Center’s natural resources educator will highlight the Seven Principles of Leave No Trace and why it’s important for everyone to do their part in protecting national, state, and local recreation areas. All participants are asked to wear boots or shoes that can get wet or muddy and dress appropriately for an evening hike around the nature center.
