You can enjoy the outdoors with Crossroads at Big Creek. They host events and activities for all ages. Ranging from hikes, demonstrations, lectures, and clubs. Their website states, “We are proud of Crossroads’ mission to inspire environmental stewardship in learners of all ages through education, research, and outdoor experiences and we work every day to further that goal.”  Some upcoming activities are, the Luminary-lit Hike on February 17th, an Ice Harvest Demonstration on February 18th, and a Wild Ones Lecture: Butterfly Gardens 101 on February 28th. All events listed above are free and open to the public. We follow up with Coggin Herringa about how they get events started, how to volunteer, and their restoration process.
