Summer Nature Challenge 2011

The Nature Challenge program is a summer-long game and competition for families to play by visiting and interacting with nature in Texas.

The Mission: Possible - Nature Challenge Program is sponsored state-wide by Agrilife Extension and the Texas Forest Service in partnership with participating nature centers, zoos, parks, aquariums and other nature-related organizations in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.

Families have the summer months to visit as many participating parks and nature areas as they can in the DFW Metroplex. At each site, families will complete activities designed for family fun and nature exploration provided in both English and Spanish.

For more information and to register, go to www.texasnaturechallenge.org.

Enjoy the nature art work by the teams that accomplished their mission at the Bob Jones Nature Center & Preserve.

See everyone at the closing ceremonies at the Heard Museum on July 17th.
