There are underwater invaders in our local waterways and we want you to help us round them up! Our culprit is the Rusty Crayfish, a tiny aquatic creature that is an invasive species in Kane County. Join Naturalists in the water with dip nets to collect, identify and remove some Rusties. Learn more about native and invasive aquatic species at educational pop-up exhibits. Prizes will be awarded for the biggest, smallest, and largest number of crayfish collected. Wear closed-toe shoes and clothes that can get muddy. We will have some dip nets to loan, but bring your own if possible. Visit one or both locations! This is a partnership program with: Forest Preserve District of Kane County, St. Charles Park District, Fox Valley Park District and Friends of the Fox River. No registration required.
