HOME SCHOOL LIFE UNDER THE ICE

Next date: Thursday, February 12, 2026 | 01:00 PM to 03:00 PM

What animals lurk beneath the ice this time of year?  You might be surprised at the many microorganisms, fish, and mammals that are still active.  Activities, crafts, and a hike will bring this frozen world to life.  The hike will be up to one mile on a trail surface of grass, dirt, and possibly snow.

The fee is $6.00 per student ($7 per student if out of county) and is recommended for ages five and older.  Siblings younger than age five may attend for free, but please do not disrupt the program.  Chaperones are free.

Pre-registration is required by calling (734) 261-1990 or by visiting Nankin Mills Interpretive Center, which is open 9:00 AM-4:00 PM Monday through Saturday (closed Noon-1:00 PM for lunch).

For more information, call (734) 261-1990.
