Did you know that bats control a lot of insects that people don’t like such as mosquitos? You and your family can learn more at the All About Bats Campfire hosted by the Harris Nature Center. Participants can sit around a campfire, make smores and take a guided walk in search of bats.

Senior Park Naturalist Kati Adams says the goal is to bust common myths about bats.

The event will be held this Saturday, June 22nd from 7 PM to 8:30 PM.
