On Saturday, March 14th, the Central KY Wildlife Refuge will host its first Geology Day.  We will meet in the parking lot at 10:00 am.  Participants will make the short walk to the Cheek Nature Center for a short orientation at which time the participants will decide which activities we will choose for the day.  We will offer a tour of an unusual geologic formation that occurs along Carpenter Creek or a walk on the Ridge Trail, Fork Trail, Wildflower Trail, or the Blue Trail.The exact length and nature of the walks will depend on the interest level and abilities of the participants.
We will conclude with a visit to an outstanding collection of rocks, minerals, and gemstones that a neighbor of ours has graciously allowed us to visit.
Participation is free. Participants should wear sturdy shoes and dress for the weather.  As always, this event is free and open to the public and appropriate for children of all ages.
