Description
Every full moon tells a story of tides, time and seasonal changes. Join us across Will County for a night where science and wonder meet beneath the glow of the moon. October is the hunter’s moon — a time when the fields are clear and hunters have a clear shot to provide meat for winter. Join us on a hike as we hunt for sights and sounds of wildlife under the moonlight while learning about hunting practices of the past. End the evening around a campfire with a story or two with time to scope out the moon!
