The Friends of the Palisades Park will be hosting “get the Bugs Out” event at Palisades-Kepler State Park Friday, Aug. 23.

The event will be held Friday, Aug. 23, and no rain date will be held.

Join the Friends at 8 p.m. to check out the night lives of insects, moths and butterflies. Jim Durbin will show us how to attract insects and moths onto a white surface in order to take pictures and identify them. This is a family friendly event.

This event will be held near the parking lot just before entering the campgrounds at Palisades-Kepler State Park. Attendees are encouraged to wear dark clothes so the night critters land on the sheet – not on you. Also, plan to wear protective clothing such as long sleeves.
