Isle Royale National Park Interpretive Ranger Jordan Kibat will offer a special "Trees Storytime" at 10:15 a.m. on Thursday, Aug. 20. Children will listen to stories about trees, learn about the different types of trees on Isle Royale and in our region and make a leaf prints project to take home.
At 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 24, Baraga State Park Interpretive Ranger Rebecca Prich will share facts and stories about black bears in her program "Bear With Me."

There will be photos of bears, tract casts and a hide on display.
Weekly Storytimes continue throughout the summer on Mondays and alternating Wednesdays from 11 a.m. - 12 p.m. All children are welcome to listen to stories and do a project afterwards.
