Change your orbit and visit the Agassiz Environmental Learning Center while reading a book about the moon as you travel around the trails.
The Fertile Public Library has teamed up with the Agassiz Environmental Learning Center to offer a series of Story Strolls this summer on the theme of "Our Universe." Children and their families are invited to explore the trails as they read the book pages set up along the path. The trails will be marked.
The third Story Stroll will be held from July 13 to August 6 and will feature Moon! Earth's Best Friend by children's book author Stacy McAnulty, and illustrator Stevie Lewis.
How It Works
NEW LOCATION! The Story Stroll is on the Agassiz Environmental Learning Center trail that starts by the sports complex. The trail entrance at the corner of Christian St. and Jefferson Ave.
Make It Count
Help us continue events like this by having everyone in your group grab a rock at the beginning to answer the question at the end of the book. We'd love for you share some pictures of you on the trail with us!
