Family Scavenger Hunt
Put your nature and sleuthing skills to the test! On Saturday, February 25th head to Westport Woods to pick up a map and a notebook to record your answers. All materials as well as nature backpacks to help with the hunt will be provided at the Learning Center. Limited materials so please register beforehand.
In a new 2023 series hosted by Executive Director Ross Moran, we will offer the opportunity to get to know WLCT better! Go behind the scenes in February to explore the process WLCT conducts to evaluate land for preservation. Register below to gain a better understanding of how we preserve "the best of Westport."
The Learning Center at Westport Woods will be open from 10am-2pm February 21st-24th. There will be a mix of indoor and outdoor activities for families to choose depending on the weather. Join us to explore the woods on a scavenger hunt or learn more about tracking identification.
Hearing lots of yips and howls at night? January through early March is Coyote mating season. WLCT's Nate McCullin highlights these extremely adaptable, misunderstood, and sly natured animals we share the land with.
Mark your calendars and join us for guided trail runs at some of Westport’s most beautiful nature areas.Expect some challenging terrain, beautiful scenery and a really good time!
