COLUMBUS, Ind. – Ivy Tech Community College Columbus biology faculty members are offering free local nature hikes for anyone interested in learning more about the natural environment around them.
The nature hikes are scheduled for the first Saturday of every month. The next one is this Saturday, June 4, at 7:30 a.m., at the Driftwood Public Fishing Area, on U.S 31, in Edinburgh. Dr. Tom Sobat will lead the hike and provide information about birds and wildflowers.
Hikes are open to anyone interested. Meet at the first paved parking area at the fishing site. Ivy Tech will have several pairs of binoculars available but encourages those who own them to bring them.
For more information about the free Ivy Tech nature hikes, email Dr. Sobat at tsobat@ivytech.edu.
