Starting on May 1, A Frog House is open at least from 1 to 5 on Sundays, weather permitting. We would love to get a cadre of volunteers who would help out and/or substitute for our weekly event leaders, assisting in our 12 to 16 week educational curriculum about the environment and wetlands. Here is our tentative calendar for the spring and summer.
