Sustainability Saturday – Nature Journaling
Saturday, June 21, 2025 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM
Point Au Roche State Park
Join us for this month's Sustainability Saturday! What's the first step to living sustainably? Appreciating our surroundings! We can't love what we don't know, so let's take some time to immortalize some meaningful moments we have spent in nature! Join us for one hour of structured journaling time to connect with the world through paper and pen. We will have journals available on a first come, first served basis so you can continue your "journaling journey" after the hour is up!
