Darke County Parks
Tree Troubles—Forest Entomology and Pathology 

Having Tree Troubles? On Aug. 5, join Darke County Park’s summer intern, Lucas McCabe, to learn about the common insects and diseases that might be invading the woods or trees in your backyard.  Lucas, a forestry student at Hocking College, hopes to educate you on the possible ailments you may encounter on your next journey into the woodlot. Have a trouble spot on a tree that doesn’t look quite right? Then take some photos or bring in some samples and Lucas or one of the Naturalists can help you after the program. Please place specimens in a plastic bag or trash bag to prevent the spread to Shawnee Prairie! This program will occur on Monday, August 5th at 7:00pm at Shawnee Prairie Preserve Nature Center (4267 State Route 502 West). For more information, please call the Nature Center or visit our website at www.darkecountyparks.org
