Wild Weekend Events!
The presence of community is the basis of human connection. Our weekend events and activities promote love and growth in the forests and fields of Westchester, and through education, conversation, and sharing in food and laughter we will make a better community.
Our Events
Community Craft
Nights
Our monthly crafting night is a free event for families that promotes community through learning common skills and enjoying the nature of the Marsh Sanctuary.
Bring a blanket and picnic food and engage with our educators and other families to learn a new skill, play games, and enjoy a campfire.
October Craft
Game Night
For our final Craft Night of the season we'll be hosting a game night--an imaginative and exciting combination of a class favorite Dungeons and Dragons style roleplaying game called Amazing Tales, arts and crafts that relate to our game, and imaginative games that get the energy out.
