WGNS constantly strives to keep you informed, and so that you don't miss this one: Thursday is "WORLD TURTLE DAY"!

There will be fun activities, crafts, live animals, and free Turtle Tracks ice cream (while supplies last) in the Barfield Crescent Park. TURTLE DAY is for all ages, and it's from 2:00 until 5:00 this coming Thursday aftermoon (5-23-2103) at the Wilderness Station.

Join Murfreesboro Parks and Recreation in a day dedicated to our shelled friends as we celebrate and discover ways to increase turtle conservation around the world. 

Participate in the World’s Slowest Hike and stop at each turtle station to learn about the different species that inhabit our planet.  In addition, find out steps to become a better GREEN family at home and in your schools to help out all the critters on this planet – including us!
