The fall season is humming for the Hannibal Parks and Recreation Department, with a packed schedule in the coming days and weeks. If you want to take part, you’ll need to act now to register.
Did you know Hannibal is home to the biggest population of a federal endangered species? And now's the best time to get a look at these rare Indiana bats as they swarm out of their caves to fatten up for hibernation.
Alvey-Mudd hopes to help participants “fall in love” with bats.
She hopes to debunk common scary bat misconceptions and teach creepy cool Missouri bat facts.
There will be something for all ages at "Bat-Fest" Saturday, October 22 at Admiral Coontz Recreation Center. "Bat-Fest" is part of a two-day celebration to mark the dedication of Sodalis Nature Preserve, Hannibal’s second largest park and a nationally important Indiana bat habitat area. There is no cost.
