Preschooler deer program at Salamonie, Oct. 14-15

Indiana DNR Release:

White-tailed deer have remained a favorite animal of children since Disney’s Bambi first graced the silver screen in 1942. Help continue that tradition by taking your 2- to 5-year-old to Salamonie Reservoir’s “Deer Me” program, Oct. 14 or 15, from 10 to 11:30 a.m. to share in the fun of learning all about deer and their life in nature.

During this hour-and-a-half program, children and their parent or guardian can enjoy activities focused around white-tailed deer. Rain or shine, the program is planned to be both indoors and outdoors, so particpants should dress accordingly. Participants should plan to arrive at the Salamonie Interpretive Center at least 15 minutes early.

There is a $2 fee per child for the program. The property entrance fee is waived for program attendees. Participants can choose to bring their lunch to eat together after the event. To register, call (260) 468-2127.
