Ivy Tech to offer free nature hikes

Ivy Tech Community College-Columbus biology faculty members are offering free local nature hikes for those interested in learning more about nature.

The nature hikes will be the first Saturday of every month, beginning April 2 at 7:30 a.m. at Owens Bend Park.

Ivy Tech Columbus faculty member Tom Sobat will lead the hike and provide information about birds and wildflowers.

Hikes are open to the public and those who wish to participate should meet at the Owens Bend Park parking lot. Ivy Tech will have several pairs of binoculars available but encourages participants to bring their own.
