LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – The popular children’s Nature Education Program at the Lake County Land Trust’s Rodman Preserve will resume on Saturday, June, 21 and be held on the third Saturday of each month through September.

The program is great fun for children ages 7 through 12, or younger if accompanied by a parent.

It is free and open to the public, starting at 9 a.m. and lasting until about noon.

A highlight of this first program will be learning about predators and prey by dissecting owl pellets, a fun activity that children enjoy.

The owl pellets contain the remains of small animals that have been eaten by owls, including bones and skulls.

Reservations are encouraged, but not required.

Please call Elaine Mansell at 707-263-1637 or Roberta Lyons at 707-994-2024 if you would like more information or to make a reservation for your child.

The preserve is located at 6350 Westlake Road near Upper Lake. Take the Nice-Lucerne Cut-off between Lakeport and Upper Lake.

Turn east onto the Nice-Lucerne Cut-off, then left on to Westlake Road. The preserve entry is to the immediate right after turning on to Westlake Road.
