Join us for a full moon walk at the Green Mountain Audubon Center.
Night programs provide an opportunity to explore the Center after hours! A walk in the dark lets acknowledge how much we rely on sight and how vulnerable we feel in the dark while allowing us to look up from the ground and tune in with our ears. This program is for folks of all ages. Children are welcome with an adult.
We will go for a short hike, turning in to who we hear. Depending on weather conditions, participants should bring:
- Warm layers- we will be outdoors for the whole program
- Traction- sturdy warm boots with good tread plus micro spikes, snowshoes, and/or hiking poles can be helpful if slippery/very snowy. Trail conditions are usually snowier than nearby towns. We have a few pair of snowshoes available to borrow for adults and youth.
- A headlamp or flashlight with a red light setting. If your light does not have this setting, we can provide red cellophane and a rubber band!
- A sense of curiosity
Trail/accessibility information: Our walk will be at a slow pace and will cover approximately 1.5 miles. The trail is unpaved and there are short sections of stairs and hills on the route. Wheelchair-accessible bathroom facilities are located at the Visitor Center, our meeting place. If you require accommodations or have questions about accessibility, please contact Audubon Vermont at 802/434-3068.
Registration:
- Registration is required for all attendees ages 2 and older. We will use the contact information you provide to notify participants of weather cancellations.
- This event is "pay what you wish". As part of Audubon Vermont's ongoing mission to make our programs accessible to all members of the community, we are implementing a sliding scale payment method for many of our programs. How much should you pay? It depends!
- Consider paying less if you participate in 3SquaresVT (SNAP), Medicaid, TANF (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families), or Reach Up.
- Consider paying more if you have funds for events and outings each month, like movies, museum admission, or eating out.
