Nature Center's New Facilities

I remember going to the Nature Center in Chico as a kid and looking at all the cool animals they had. I really enjoyed it. I event went to a summer camp once. It is definitely a neat place for kids to learn about nature and Bidwell Park. Today, the Nature Center had a grand opening ceremony for it's new Kristie's Nature Lab and Howard S. Tucker Exhibit Hall. These are two new facilities that have been in the works for a long time. They are finally open and I hope will get a lot of use. There are some neat thing in there and if you ever get a chance, you should go yourself. Be a kid again and use your sense of adventure and curiosity.
