EVENING PRESENTATION: BATTY ABOUT BATS – Our bats don’t turn into vampires or suck blood, but they still rule our night skies. Join Rose and Kelly for a fun true or false game to dispel common myths and discover why bats are important to the LSPP ecosystem.

MEET THE NATURALIST: COASTAL MEAT-EATING WILDFLOWERS – Life on Lake Superior’s coastline is no walk in the park!

Join Mary and explore how these flowers have developed the ability to trap and feed on insect prey.
