The ‘green’ of St. Patrick’s Day reminds us of the Emerald Isle of Ireland, that spring is nearly here, and the importance of nature around us. Lucky us, to have the beauty of the Bruce Trail connected to the Glendridge Quarry Naturalization geosite and the work of the Niagara GeoPark that seamlessly connects our urban and natural environments. Come join us for a hike through this central geosite and along the Escarpment to Hydro Hill, and then back through the Brock Univeristy campus. The hike is organized for different abilities, and will provide parents and others the opportunity to adapt the hike to their physical needs. Listening to music from Ireland prior to the hike is recommended. Wear something green to welcome spring!
