Join our naturalists at the Senior Center on a Wednesday of every month from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. for a FREE nature-themed program.

These programs take place during lunch at the Senior Center, and donations are accepted for lunch. The Senior Center partners with the Central Indiana Council on Aging (CICOA) to provide the meals. CICOA’s paperwork must be completed upon your first visit. Lunch is prepared by Hendricks Regional Health.
