Experience a magical summer light show with your family and learn how best to view or gently catch and release fireflies! After a short presentation, we’ll take an evening walk in the meadows for firefly viewing while keeping our eyes open for the stars, planets, and twilight wildlife.
This program will take place in the Stable Auditorium, adjacent to the main Upper Parking Lot.
This is a program designed for families with children, so all registrations require at least one adult and one child. For a lightning bugs program designed for adults, check out the Evening Firefly Watch.
To keep group sizes conducive to firefly catching and viewing, pre-registration is required through Mass Audubon’s website.
This August, The Mount is hosting a Children’s Book Swap as part of our Community Day celebration!We’re collecting gently loved children’s booksto share the joy of reading with other families in our community. If you have books your kids have outgrown, this is the perfect chance to give them a second life. All ages, reading levels, and languages are welcome!
Please drop off your gently loved booksat The Mount anytime this summer. We will have a bin in the Stable, and books will also be accepted at the Ticket Booth and other Youth & Family Programs.
