Join us for our next monthly speaker series — McCully Heritage Project — on Tuesday, August 9 at 6:30pm! We'll be joined by Michelle Berg, Director of the McCully Heritage Project. The McCully Heritage Project is a 940-acre non-profit environmental center in Calhoun County, Illinois. Michelle will discuss the history and current programs at the McCully Heritage Project, as well as the environmental education opportunities the project offers. The McCully Wetland will be 25 years old next year, and it has reached full maturity. The wetland is also home to a beaver family! Michelle will discuss how the beaver family has changed the wetland, and why their residence is an exciting opportunity for the McCully Heritage Project and its visitors.

The event will be held in-person at the Old Bakery Beer Company at 400 Landmarks Boulevard in Alton, Illinois. The speaking program will begin at 6:30pm in the room adjacent to Old Bakery Beer Company's dining room. There is a virtual option to tune into the speaking program via Zoom for folks who are unable to join us in-person. Register here to join us (either virtually or in-person) for our August Speaker Series to learn more from Michelle about the McCully Heritage Project!
