Heritage Days 2012

Written by karen on September 13th, 2011

Heritage Days is an annual event in Portal to celebrate the natural and cultural heritage of our area. It is sponsored by the Wildlands Network and features two days of presentations on topics like our area’s biodiversity, conservation, local history, and other interesting topics.

This year, Brad and I offered to help put together a kids day for this event. For this event, there were presentations on tracking wildlife, native plants (including making newspaper pots and planting seeds), and our national forest. A theme throughout the day was “What Makes Our Area Special,” and the kids made this great mural showing all that they learned.
