LISBON — June is National Great Outdoors Month and June 4 is National Trails Day. Lisbon Parks and Rec is celebrating at Beaver Park with a Trail Walk guided by Wildlife Biologist, Ben Nugent. Nugent will guide a tour through park trails pointing out plants and trees. He will identify birds and bird calls, as well as any wildlife that may be seen. We will identify forest edibles and bring back tea making herbs to the lodge. You will be able to make and enjoy your own tea while asking questions and discussing the walk.
Bring your binoculars for birding and come dressed for the weather. The walk will only be cancelled if there is heavy rain and lightening. There is no cost for this and it is open to everyone. Children must have a parent with them. The program begins at 9 a.m. at Verla’s Lodge at the park entrance. Beaver Park is located at 37 Cotton Road, Lisbon. Call Lisbon Parks and Recreation for more information, 353-2289.
