It's Thursday, so we thought we'd "bug" you. Except...

None of these critters are true bugs, although they are all insects. True bugs have a beak that they use to feed. Mantis and grasshoppers use mandibles to feed and this fly uses a proboscis.

We went out to the ballgame! ⚾️

Had a great time with the Lansing Lugnuts as their community partner and having the chance to talk to so many fans about the work we do at Woldumar. Go Nuts!

What a great year of camp!

It was quieter at the nature center last week without our campers around.

Sparking a curiosity, understanding and love of nature is what we're all about at Woldumar and we're incredibly grateful to the hundreds of camp families who chose to spend their summers with us.

This year, we filled 821 spots at camp over our 11 week run. We can't wait to do it again in 2027.
