Two Hundred Celebrate 'Year of the Frog'

On Sunday, August 3, 2008, over 200 people came out to the F.A. Seiberling Nature Realm at Summit County to celebrate “The Year of the Frog.” We had games, crafts, a lecture, and a hike to our vernal pool to keep people busy. Families had a blast as they looked at some of our native frogs and salamanders. The kids got really excited as they met Vern the Wood Frog. Some of the children worked hard on their mosaic salamanders crafts. Many of the families ended up purchasing passports from Cleveland Metroparks Zoo after they became inspired to support "The Year of the Frog" project. Great time!
