Overview

Come splash in the stream behind the Russell Public Library for some outdoor spring FUN! With nets and magnifying field microscopes, we'll see the water creatures up close and personal. If wading is not for you, we'll have white examination trays with rocks and mud for your investigation. Also included will be a guided Storywalk® of "Over and Under the Pond". A copy of the book and a RAFFLE for a FREE book for one lucky participant to take home will be available at the library! REMEMBER: All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Wear boots, the higher the better for spring mud and for wading in the stream. Program will run Rain or Shine.
