Join us for a Spring Open House at the Hanson Nature Center! The Center will be open, you'll be able to walk the trails, and we’ll have crafts for the kids. Perhaps best of all, we will be dedicating our new Motus Tower at 2:00 PM! Refreshments will also be served. It should be a wonderful way to enjoy a spring day!

All Iowa residents can fish for free June 5th-7th. So, if you've always wanted to try fishing, now may be the time! We'll be at Thorpe Park to loan you everything you need to cast a line, including poles, lures, tackle, bait, and even instruction. All you need to do is stop at the Lake Catherine boat dock anytime during the evening and we'll get you set up. We'll even have some handouts that you can take home with you, as well as activity sheets for the kids!
