Upcoming SIMNA activities:

On Thursday, July 31st, Heidi Doss will present a training on the topic of teaching children in the outdoors. The class will meet from 6 - 8:00 PM at the nature center. The class is limited to 15 people, so please email Gena at masternaturalists@gmail.com if you wish to sign up. If you sign up but later realize you will not be able to attend, please let us know so we can offer your spot to someone else.

The next SIMNA meeting is scheduled for Monday, August 18 at 6:00 PM. We'll meet at the Nature Center and begin with SIMNA member Steve Pitt's presentation on the history of Pigeon Creek.

On Thursday, September 11th, Canoe Evansville will be offering a moonlight paddle exclusively for SIMNA. Please email an RSVP to masternaturalists@gmail.com if you wish to attend, and indicate if you'd prefer to paddle at Hovey Lake or at Bluegrass Fish & Wildlife Area. If you are planning to bring your own canoe or kayak, let us know. The cost of the program is $13.50 per person. Please RSVP at or before the August 18th meeting.

For our September 15th meeting, we're planning to take a hike at Howell Wetlands, since many Master Naturalists have not had a chance to visit the property. Don't worry--there are barely any bugs at all!


Lauren Preske has requested that we save empty toilet paper rolls for her, as she frequently uses them for programs. You can bring your collected tubes to the nature center, but please indicate that they are for Lauren when you drop them off so that they can be set aside for her.
