In partnership with the Michigan Geological Survey, join us for a fun event for kids and families focused on the fascinating world of rocks! At this event, held right on Pilgrim Haven’s cobblestone beach, we will dig into the world of stones with a story book called When You Find the Right Rock.  Through hands-on activities, we will explore the types of rocks you can find on Michigan beaches, plus there will be time for you to ask the geologists all your burning questions about rocks and minerals!

• Kids of all ages are welcome!

• Kids must be accompanied by an adult.

• Parking: Please do not park on 18th Avenue!
  If parking is full at the Pilgrim Haven lot, please park on the service road on 77th Street marked “17540 Fire Lane L,” on the north side of the preserve. Look for the SWMLC Event signs, head down the drive, and staff will show you where to park. Please note: Google maps has incorrectly marked this service road “Fire Lane K.”

• Dogs are typically welcome at SWMLC preserves, but we ask that you leave your furry friend at home for this guided nature event.

• This nature preserve has pit toilets (yay!)
