MDC Naturalist Jessie Ballard will lead the group for a fall stroll in Joplin’s Wildcat Park. The walk is rated as easy, but be sure to dress for the weather and bring a comfy outdoor chair. Following the walk, participants will gather around a fire and make delectable s’mores.

This event is recommended for ages seven and up. Registration is required.
