From muskrats to crayfish, learn more about the residents of Lake Joanis and Moses Creek at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point’s Schmeeckle Reserve during the annual Spring Candlelight Hike Festival.
Held from 7-9:30 p.m. Friday, May 6, the free, public event offers a walk on torch-lit trails around the reserve as well as activities for all ages, crafts, snacks, programs and door prizes. The reserve’s Browse Shop will also be open. A donation of $2 per person or $5 per family is suggested.
At 7:30 and 8:30 p.m., gather at the campfire for the program “Underwater Schmeeckle” and hear from some of the animals that make the reserve’s waterways their home.
