| Get ready to help save Missouri’s native species and protect Wildcat Glades! This year’s theme, “Return of the Native Species” focuses on the importance of native species for our local ecosystems and the ways to help foster native species around your own home and community. But if the ultimate battle between good and evil isn’t exactly your forte, we’ll also feature a Native Tree Giveaway sponsored by Liberty Utilities (Trees must be requested from Liberty Utilities prior to event; additional trees will be available to purchase from Forest Keeling while supplies last), live music, food trucks, a recycled art contest, an all-ages Star Wars themed costume contest sponsored by Joplin Parks & Rec, an outdoor scavenger hunt, an appearance from the famous 501st Legion, and numerous booths hosted by organizations from in and around our community. This is a partnership event with the Missouri Department of Conservation, Wildcat Glades Nature Group, the City of Joplin, Liberty Utilities, Wright Tree Service, Grip-Cuts, and the Missouri Master Naturalists. |
