Bats have a reputation as being spooky or even fearsome, but they are actually some of the most beneficial animals to people. And right now, bats need our help.
Come learn about the amazing, insect-eating, acrobatic bats in your backyard...and what you can do to keep them around! Then, help us build homes for NJ bats in a workshop led by local Eagle Scout candidate Mitchell Fechter.
This program is FREE, but space is limited. Please RSVP.
