Our final fall Kids Club meeting will feature a special guest from the Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge.
Central Library
Tuesday, Dec. 13 at 4:00 p.m.
Chincoteague, setting for the beloved book Misty of Chincoteague, is an island refuge located on the southern end of Assateague Island in Virginia. Jenny Howard Owen, an education expert and the Volunteer Coordinator for the refuge, will talk to us about the wildlife on the island, and the work of the refuge.
The Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge was established in 1943 for the protection of migratory waterfowl habitat with emphasis on conserving the greater snow goose. The refuges? more than 14,000 acres of beach, maritime forest, saltmarsh, and freshwater marsh habitats are home to a spectacular variety of migratory birds, plants, and other animals.
Owen joins us through a partnership with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
