Please join us for us on Friday, July 25th for an arachnid-filled adventure at Dreher Island State Park with Dr. Robert Wolff, professor of Science and Health Science at South University Columbia.

This unique walk will begin at 7:30 pm and will focus on finding spiders by looking for their eyeshine as we explore the park with headlamps at night. The class will conclude at approximately 10:00 pm. Dr. Wolff has spent most of his life studying spiders, and will identify and discuss the different spider species we’ll find in the park. The shores of Lake Murray are known for their abundance of spiders, so it should be an action-packed night! Jay Keck, SCWF bird guy, will also be attending to assist with critter identification, and to overcome his own fear of spiders. So, if you’d like to learn more about spiders from an expert, or instead would simply like to make fun of Jay and his irrational fear of spiders, please sign up quickly to reserve your spot! We’ll be limiting this to ten participants in order to provide a quality learning experience for all! 

Class Date: July 25. Rain date July 26.
