Spring is a wonderful time to get outdoors and explore your local wetlands. Yolo Basin Foundation is hosting a family fun scavenger hunt! Find your way around the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area using the provided Scavenger Hunt Map, labeled with the scavenger hunt stations. At each station, you will have a clue to solve, then hop out of your car to search the back of existing signs and posts for information about the amazing plants and animals that depend on these wetlands. Visit at least five stations to enter the prize drawing. You can submit a hard copy of the form, filling it out by pencil or you can fill it out electronically on your smartphone or tablet as you go.

For the directions, map and more information to participate, visit the event website or call Yolo Basin Foundation at (530) 757-3780. A $10 donation to support the Foundation’s wetland education programs is suggested. Yolo Basin Foundation members are free. The scavenger hunt is open from March 20 to April 11.
