Darke County Parks
After School Program a Success
The Darke County Park District began offering their new after-school
program, “Conservation Kids”, in October 2019. The program continues to
be successful with more children attending each month. Conservation
Kids is held at the Bish Discovery Center on the second Tuesday of each
month from 4:15 pm to 5:30 pm. The program requires registration but is
FREE and open to children ages 8-11. Past months’ topics include
conservation-based themes such as stream water quality, the water
cycle, forest management, deforestation, biodiversity and more.
January’s program will focus on wildlife conservation in Ohio. Students
who attend will travel back through Ohio’s history to see how our
actions have affected wildlife over the course of time. They will also
get the chance to meet some wildlife ambassadors and learn about what
they can do to protect animals and habitats here in Ohio.
If you’re interested in registering your student to attend the next
Conservation Kids program, on January 14th, visit
www.darkecountyparks.org/programs or call 937-548-0165.
