Visitor Centre opens for 2012
May 26
There's something for the whole family at the Mallorytown Landing visitor centre. This year's travelling exhibit will be the best yet! Live specimens of native and exotic creepy crawlies will transport the visitor to the secret world of insects. Kids will be thrilled to get a hands-on experience with Canada's longest snake species. Older kids and families can borrow a GPS and learn to geocache, exploring the landscape on the hunt for hidden treasure. Picnickers can explore new outdoor exhibits on Mohawk culture and the stories of local residents who make a difference in our ecosystem.
