About the event
Let's create hiking sticks! Â Please bring a sturdy, mostly straight stick to decorate. Â The stick should be no taller than the user's shoulders, about 1 1/2" thick, and as straight as possible. Â The stick should be light but sturdy. Â A stick or branch with smooth bark is best. Â I'll bring paint, yard, and string to decorate. Â If there other items you'd like to include from your nature collections or art supplies, please feel free to bring those as well. Â
In the meantime, here is a great link for some inspiration if you'd like to read up on making a hiking stick beforehand. Â

I will also have my Exploring Nature Activity Book which provides great instructions on pages 12-13 (in case you have the book). Â
