Our first outdoor meeting of the year will take place at Mississippi River County Park on Tuesday, April 30 at 6:30 pm.  https://www.stearnscountymn.gov/394/Mississippi-River-County-Park (note that this is different than the Bend in in the River County park, which as across the river, so make sure you go to the right place.)  As you enter the park, take the right-hand fork at the “restored prairie” sign and park in the long, thin parking area that you come to before the boat launch. The trail is wide and flat, and at least right now, dry, so its an easy walk.  Bring whatever you need for a one-hour leisurely walk—tick preventions (didn’t find any yesterday…) water, etc.  If there are weather issues, as always, use your own judgement.  Typically we would walk if there was a threat of rain or possibly light rain but not if there had been an all-day soaker that was going to continue or likely thunderstorm or worse.
