Firefly Nature Playground

Nature Themed Playground: a big hit with kids and their parents and a great feature to the New Firefly Nature Park

Kids of all ages are connecting to nature through their imagination at the nature playground that features log walk balance beams and a hollow log crawl through, a spinning mushroom, a frog climber, mushroom stepping platforms, and inovative companion swings.

Firefly Park is a part of the Xerxes Society study of the decline of the Monarch Butterfly. Led by Becky Yeager and other volunteers from our Wildlife Habitate Committee counts of butterfly eggs, larva and chrysalis, are counted throughout the park.  You will see milkweed a Monarch Butterfly favorite throughout the park and a New polinator garden is nearly complete

In the next phase at Firefly Park bird viewing blinds will be built, and observation tower, and a winter Nordic trail are next.

not many fireflies but incredible sunset and love the boardwalk
