Celebrate Earth Day: Horicon Marsh

  • Horicon Marsh Visitor Center N7725 Wisconsin 28 Horicon, WI, 53032 United States (map)

Spend the day with RVA and our RVA consortium District students learning all about the Horicon Marsh State Wildlife Area and what the environment means to us.  This wetland has a very special and essential role to play in Wisconsin's ecology and includes the World's Largest Freshwater Cattail Marsh. It’ll be a great way to launch your Earth Day Celebrations!

Our day will last from 9:00 am till 1:30 pm and leave plenty of time to explore the marsh outdoors, the Explorium indoors, and participate in FOUR unique guided explorations of what the marsh has to offer.
