YUCK! Spring 2026
YUCK! is all about getting outside, getting messy, and discovering the wonders of Rose Run Park! Designed for kids in grades 1 3, this program encourages hands-on exploration and imaginative free play in nature. As children wade through the creek, search for critters, and build with natural materials, they’ll develop a deeper appreciation for the natural world and the community they’re a part of. Along the way, kids build confidence as they try new things, problem-solve, and navigate the natural world. They’ll also make new friends, practice teamwork, and strengthen social skills all while reaping the many benefits of outdoor play, from boosting creativity and resilience to supporting overall health and well-being. Every muddy splash and curious discovery helps nurture a lifelong love for nature and community.
