EARLY-RELEASE DAY PROGRAM TO FOCUS ON SNAKES
LAWRENCE - Lawrence Parks and Recreation Department's Prairie Park
Nature Center, 2730 Harper St., is offering children the opportunity to
learn about snakes on the public school's early-release day, Wednesday,
Oct. 25, from 3 to 4:30 p.m. at the nature center.

The program, Slithering Snakes, is designed for children ages 7 to 12
years old. Participants will learn about snakes and their environment.
The nature center's collection of snakes will be used in the program to
allow participants a first-hand look at the creatures. A portion of the
program will be conducted outdoors, so participants need to be prepared
for cool weather. 

Cost of the program is $5.

Pre-registration is required. To enroll, individuals may do so online at
www.lprd.org or they can visit a Lawrence Parks and Recreation facility,
including: the Community Building, 115 West 11th St.; East Lawrence
Recreation Center, 1245 East 15th St.; Holcom Park Recreation Center,

Prairie Park Nature Center; the Administrative Offices, 947 New
Hampshire St. or South Park Recreation Center, 1141 Massachusetts St.
