SUMMARY:Firefly Garden Hikes
DESCRIPTION:@ 			\n			\n							 \n\n\nA Naturally Delightful Garden Adventure\nJoin us for a special guided hike celebrating the amazing fireflies that call the Garden home! These fascinating insects are most active at dusk\, just as the sun sets and darkness begins to fall. Along the way\, you’ll learn about their life cycle and how to create a firefly-friendly habitat in your own backyard. \nThis program includes an engaging presentation\, a guided evening walk through the Garden\, and an opportunity to catch and release fireflies. We recommend bringing a clean\, dry plastic jar with a lid (such as a mayonnaise jar) for this experience—and don’t forget a flashlight for after dark! \nCapacity is limited\, and advance registration is the best way to secure your spot. Walk-ins will be accepted only if space is available\, so be sure to reserve your place today. \n\nProgram Pricing\n\n\nGarden Members\nRegister Online In Advance \n\n\n$15 – Individual\n$50 – 4 People\n$65 – 5 People\n\n\nSee Registration Below\n\n\n\nNon-Members\nRegister Online In Advance \n\n\n$20 – Individual\n$65 – 4 People\n$80 – 5 People\n\n\nSee Registration Below\n\n\n\n*Become a Huntsville Botanical Garden Member and enjoy exclusive discounts\, special programs\, and more—plus free daily admission and reciprocal benefits at over 380 gardens nationwide! \n\nRegistration\nTo register\, please select a time on your preferred firefly hike date. \n\n\n\n\nDate\nTime 1\nTime 2\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, June 16\n6:45-8:00 PM · Hike\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\nTuesday\, June 30\n—\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\nTuesday\, July 7\n6:45-8:00 PM · Hike\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\nTuesday\, July 14\n—\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\n\n\n\nQuestions?\nPlease contact education@hsvbg.org for more information. \n\n\n		\n\n\n\n				\n			\n \n\n\n\n\n\n						\n							Add to calendar						 \n\n\n\n									\n										Google Calendar									\n								\n\n									\n										iCalendar									\n								\n\n									\n										Outlook 365									\n								\n\n									\n										Outlook Live

SUMMARY:Firefly Garden Hikes
DESCRIPTION:@ 			\n			\n							 \n\n\nA Naturally Delightful Garden Adventure\nJoin us for a special guided hike celebrating the amazing fireflies that call the Garden home! These fascinating insects are most active at dusk\, just as the sun sets and darkness begins to fall. Along the way\, you’ll learn about their life cycle and how to create a firefly-friendly habitat in your own backyard. \nThis program includes an engaging presentation\, a guided evening walk through the Garden\, and an opportunity to catch and release fireflies. We recommend bringing a clean\, dry plastic jar with a lid (such as a mayonnaise jar) for this experience—and don’t forget a flashlight for after dark! \nCapacity is limited\, and advance registration is the best way to secure your spot. Walk-ins will be accepted only if space is available\, so be sure to reserve your place today. \n\nProgram Pricing\n\n\nGarden Members\nRegister Online In Advance \n\n\n$15 – Individual\n$50 – 4 People\n$65 – 5 People\n\n\nSee Registration Below\n\n\n\nNon-Members\nRegister Online In Advance \n\n\n$20 – Individual\n$65 – 4 People\n$80 – 5 People\n\n\nSee Registration Below\n\n\n\n*Become a Huntsville Botanical Garden Member and enjoy exclusive discounts\, special programs\, and more—plus free daily admission and reciprocal benefits at over 380 gardens nationwide! \n\nRegistration\nTo register\, please select a time on your preferred firefly hike date. \n\n\n\n\nDate\nTime 1\nTime 2\n\n\n\n\nTuesday\, June 16\n6:45-8:00 PM · Hike\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\nTuesday\, June 30\n—\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\nTuesday\, July 7\n6:45-8:00 PM · Hike\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\nTuesday\, July 14\n—\n7:30-9:00 PM · Hike\n\n\n\n\n\nQuestions?\nPlease contact education@hsvbg.org for more information. \n\n\n		\n\n\n\n				\n			\n \n\n\n\n\n\n						\n							Add to calendar						 \n\n\n\n									\n										Google Calendar									\n								\n\n									\n										iCalendar									\n								\n\n									\n										Outlook 365									\n								\n\n									\n										Outlook Live
