## About

Wehr's monthly themed family discovery walk goes Thanksgiving-season this month: families learn to purr, cluck and gobble like a wild turkey, then follow a naturalist along the trails looking for turkeys and the signs they leave. Designed for children 6 to 11, with younger siblings welcome. Register online to guarantee a spot; same-day sign-up is allowed if space remains.
