Do you love nature?  Have a passion for wildlife?  Enjoy hiking in a place with spectacular scenery that is also close to the city? The Ann & Sandy Cross Conservation Area (ASCCA) is a place you want to know more about!
Or perhaps you already enjoy hiking the land at the ASCCA but don't know about the many other things that go on here, such as education programs and habitat management. Or you could be a long-time supporter of the Cross Conservation Area and want to know our latest updates and plans!
All this and more will be found at the Ann & Sandy Cross Conservation Area Fall Open House 2010 on Saturday, October 16th. Drop in between 9:30am and 12:00pm at Belvedere House at the ASCCA to chat with us, learn more about the Cross Conservation Area, give us your feedback, play kids nature games and have all sorts of fun!
Join a guided hike at 10:30am, which is a wonderful way to see the land and connect with other hikers. Back inside, hot chocolate and cookies will be provided. All ages are welcome. So bring the kids, bring a friend or just bring yourself out for the festivities! There will be ASCCA merchandise available, including water bottles, caps, mugs and the always popular, beautifully illustrated Paradise Preserved book and you could win a door prize just for coming by.
Please RSVP to:
info@crossconservation.org by October 13th and let us know if you would like to join the guided hike. Visit:
