Mentor Marsh: Second Saturday Science

Mentor Marsh: Second Saturday Science offers families a chance to explore one of the region's natural areas with a focus on discovery and observation. This four-hour outing takes you to the western end of Mentor Marsh, where you'll have the opportunity to encounter the marsh's plants, wildlife, and ecosystems firsthand. It's a great fit for families who enjoy getting outdoors and want their kids to develop a deeper appreciation for local nature. This is a hands-on field experience rather than a classroom setting, so come ready to walk and investigate. The program runs from 8 a.m. to noon, giving you a full morning to explore. Whether your children are budding naturalists or simply curious about what lives in a marsh environment, this event connects them directly with the natural world in their own backyard.
