Join in the New Children's Summer Reading Series

New Hope, Pennsylvania - For the first time, Bowman's Hill Wildflower Preserve presents "The 2003 Children's Summer Reading Series". Parents and kids, ages 4 though 10, are invited to join us for readings of exciting books about the outdoors followed by a hike through the Preserve in search of the plants and critters in the books. (Grandparents and grandchildren, aunts/uncles and nieces/nephews are welcome too!)

This new program is held at the Preserve Visitor Center every Thursday from June 26 through August 21, 2003, rain or shine. The program is held from 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. It begins indoors with and ends on the trails, so wear comfortable walking shoes and dress for the weather.

Members of Bowman's Hill Wildflower Preserve are admitted free. Non-members are asked to make a donation for the price of admission. Admission for non-members: Adults-$5, Seniors (62+)-$3, Children 4 through 14-$2. To guarantee a place, please pre-register, as space is limited. To pre-register, call the Preserve at (215) 862-2924.

Through stories and activities on the trails, the groups have explored seed transportation, insect appreciation, and uses of trees, engaged in a butterfly hunt, and become nature detectives.
